Jake Cohen (He/Him)
I grew up in the SF Bay Area and then went to UC Santa Barbara for college. My first paid job was working an IT Helpdesk at one of the grad-schools at UC Santa Barbara. I’d always enjoyed working on computers - and this helped me learn the basics of IT. That job also provided the connection to land a position at LogicMonitor (infrastructure monitoring for IT teams) right after graduating. I started on the sales-side, spending most of my time there as a Sales Engineer. I spent a lot of time building custom-solutions for customers as well as helping build internal tools for our teams. After roughly 6 years there, I made the move to PagerDuty to work on the Process Automation products - since I had known some of the original Rundeck team that were part of the acquisition by PagerDuty. After a year on the Solutions Consulting team, I transitioned over to the Product Management team working on our Solutions and Integrations. That brings us to the present!

JJ works as a Developer Advocate representing IBM worldwide. He engages in the IBM’s watsonx service, the Open Source AI ecosystem, and Kubernetes ecosystem with a focus on Red Hat’s OpenShift. He attempts to teach enterprises and users successful skills to onboard to the AI and Cloud Native ecosystem though he learned his trade in the DevOps ecosystem. If he isn’t building high level automation to streamline his work, he’s building the groundwork to prepare for that need. He’s been an avid home-labber and self-hoster of open source software for years and gives back to that community as much as possible.
He lives and grew up in Austin, Texas. A father and husband, trying to learn to balance his natural nerdiness with family life. He enjoys a good strong dark ale, hoppy IPA, some team building Artemis, and epic Gloomhaven campaigning.
He has dove headfirst into Fedora since IBM buying Redhat, but still secretly wants FreeBSD everywhere. He’s always trying to become a better web technology developer, though normally just uses bash and python to get the job done.
