Jonathan Caruso

15+ years in IT infrastructure, network engineering, and security compliance. Builds production SaaS applications and automation tools.

About

15+ years across MSP, enterprise, and defense contractor environments. I build infrastructure that stays up and software that ships.

Currently an Engineer II at Premier One, a Microsoft Solutions Partner MSP, supporting Microsoft 365 and Azure environments, endpoint security, and network infrastructure for business clients. Before that I ran Cisco infrastructure, Windows and Linux servers, and CMMC compliance for a defense contractor. On the side, I run Caruso Business Solutions LLC, IT consulting and custom software for small businesses.

Rare combination of infrastructure expertise and full-stack development. I understand systems from the rack to the browser.
