What I'm looking for

I am looking for senior roles where I can design cloud-native architectures, improve CI/CD and platform automation, mentor teams, and solve complex system integration challenges in an agile environment.

I am an experienced software developer, architect and DevOps engineer with deep expertise in cloud-native systems, .NET/C# development, and automation. I combine hands-on coding with architecture and platform design to deliver reliable production systems.

Over my career I have led development teams, implemented CI/CD pipelines, migrated legacy applications to containerised and cloud environments, and built integrations using Microsoft Graph and Azure services. I hold multiple Azure and DevOps certifications that complement my practical experience.

I have repeatedly worked as a senior engineer and technical lead across public sector and enterprise clients, delivering infrastructure-as-code, automated deployments, monitoring and incident resolution. I enjoy mentoring colleagues, promoting agile practices, and improving team workflows.

I seek roles where I can apply full-stack and platform knowledge to solve complex problems, help teams adopt modern cloud patterns, and contribute to reliable, secure, and well-architected systems.
