Ronald McCollam
Ronald McCollam is a "geek of all trades" with experience ranging from full stack development to IT operations to management. He has a strong background in open source software, starting when a stack of 3.5" Slackware floppies was the *easy* way to install Linux. He has architected and managed everything from "Big Data" systems at Canonical and Hortonworks down to embedded IoT devices at <a href="https://www.balena.io/">balena.io</a>, but the common theme with all systems has always been monitoring. So Grafana Labs is a perfect fit! When not on the road, Ronald resides on his back porch in Somerville, MA with a frosty beverage in hand.
