I build secure multi-region AWS and Kubernetes platforms that reduce costs and standardize delivery.
What I'm looking for
At Healsgood AI, I own the AWS platform across cloud architecture, Kubernetes engineering, DevSecOps, compliance, FinOps, governance, and platform strategy. I've built a secure multi-account, multi-region AWS environment, standardized CI/CD across engineering teams, and reduced AWS costs by 48.82% while delivering more than $25,000 in infrastructure savings.
I designed and secured an Amazon EKS platform with IRSA, RBAC, Helm, External Secrets Operator, centralized observability, automated secrets management, and cross-account monitoring. I also led Vanta adoption, created a bespoke NHS DSP Toolkit compliance framework, and expanded the platform into the United States.
Previously, I founded Prime Fuels SA and led delivery of a cloud-native logistics and fleet management platform. My background also includes leading operational, technical, and commercial teams in high-volume fuel and logistics operations.
