Hey! I’m Corban Mailloux. 👋🏼
In my professional life, I’m a staff engineer in Massachusetts, currently between roles and looking for what’s next. (Hiring for remote work? Reach out: [email protected])
Until recently, I built and maintained several components of VMware/Broadcom’s SaaS platforms. I primarily focused on scaling various data ingestion pipelines, including one system running more than a million jobs per minute. I rode through two acquisitions in that time: CloudHealth was acquired by VMware in 2019, and VMware was acquired by Broadcom in 2023.
I’m an alumnus of Rochester Institute of Technology where I majored in software engineering with a focus on computing security. I also minored in communications.
Outside of work, I enjoy home improvement projects, making music, and flying FPV drones. I play saxophones and keys in a band called Well Suited. Come check us out sometime!
At home, I’m a dad of 1 and cat-dad of 2. For the cats, I’ve trained them to do various tricks including jumping through hoops, walking upright, and heeling by my side. You can find some of our cat training adventures on
Instagram.
As you’ll see in my projects, I like to work on home automation projects and generally enjoy DIY electronics. I’m a big fan and occasional contributor to Home Assistant, an open-source, Python-based platform that integrates with just about everything. You can find my complete Home Assistant configuration on Github.
I invite you to take a look at some of my previous project write-ups and to reach out on LinkedIn or email.
