Corey The Engineer

DevOps Papa, Furbaby Father, and Girl Dad


Hi! I’m Corey Prak

A first-generation Cambodian American based in the US.

My background started in software, but today my specialty is building excellent and scalable Cloud Infrastructure. I take just as much pride in the effort I put into elevataing my team and people around me.

Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, in depth (with some Go on the side). Ungodly, cringeworthy, unhealthy, family-sacrificing amounts of time invested. Github

To make the most of my experience, I share it whenever possible and have helped people become more competent engineers where most are brand new to the field. Of the 20 people who have worked with me, 8 now have careers in tech. Reflections on that.

Currently a one person team as Lead Engineer of the Platform Infrastructure team at Impact, where I rebuilt our cloud infrastructure from the ground up in 10 months. Alone. LinkedIn

Outside of tech, travel feeds the soul. My biggest pleasure, greatest mission, and motivation for the insane grind is being a father to my three daughters and two dogs. I’m an alright husband 😂. Instagram
