Enterprise Network Automation Toolkit
A unified automation toolkit supporting both Cisco on-prem infrastructure and Meraki cloud networks. Streamlines device management, configuration, and BGP peering setup across hybrid environments.
I'm Max Thomas, a Lead Systems Engineer at UW Credit Union based in Madison, WI. I specialize in hybrid cloud architectures, network automation, and building resilient infrastructure at scale.
I architect hybrid cloud solutions and automate enterprise-scale infrastructure using Terraform and Ansible. I design hybrid cloud architectures and drive large-scale network automation across complex environments.
I specialize in Cisco and Meraki network automation with deep API integrations, making enterprise-scale infrastructure manageable and scalable.
Outside of work, I maintain a dual-environment homelab: a private cluster for experimentation and a public VPS for production services. I build everything from AI assistants to game development tools, automation workflows, and smart home integrations.
"Hands-on experimentation with production-grade infrastructure—where learning meets real-world implementation."

Voice-activated Python assistant with wake-word detection, contextual memory, and modular architecture. Uses GPT and ElevenLabs TTS to control Home Assistant, Proxmox, and smart home systems through natural conversation, reducing common administrative tasks from minutes to seconds.
An experimental AI-driven life simulator inspired by Rick and Morty's "Roy" game. Combining large language models, dynamic memory, and multi-agent systems to create emergent, replayable life paths.
My homelab is where I experiment safely, validate new technologies, and build production-grade personal projects. Running both private on-prem infrastructure and a public VPS, it mirrors enterprise hybrid cloud environments.
I'm open to discussing new opportunities, technical consulting engagements, and collaborative projects. Let's discuss how we can work together on your next infrastructure challenge.
