Peter Arsenault

Peter Arsenault is a Principal Information Developer at Progress. With over a decade of experience in technical writing and courseware development, Peter has led efforts to modernize courseware at Progress—revamping both the content and the tooling used to produce it (including the integration of AI technologies). While writing documentation based on Spring Framework and Java in 2019, Peter realized his interest in the technologies and was encouraged by a mentor at Progress to study it. He earned a master’s degree in Computer Information Systems in 2023. Since then, he has expanded his role into the DevSecOps space, contributing to system migrations and process improvements across the organization. Peter bridges the gap between engineering and education, bringing clarity to complex systems. He also actively participates in the Boston tech community, attending and speaking at local Java meetups. In his free time, Peter enjoys running, swimming, playing guitar in a Boston-area band, and spending time with his son. He also maintains a website where he blogs about technologies, especially failed or under-examined technologies like Enhanced CDs and the macOS Touch Bar. You can also find Peter on LinkedIn.
