What I'm looking for

I seek roles focused on platform and cloud engineering where I can build secure, automated, scalable infrastructure, improve CI/CD, mentor teams, and reduce operational costs.

I am a DevOps and Platform Engineer with deep AWS, automation, and infrastructure-as-code expertise who delivers secure, scalable platforms and measurable operational improvements.

Over my career I have reduced deployment times dramatically, saved organizations significant cloud costs, and standardized CI/CD across many services by building and maintaining 60+ GitHub Actions pipelines and extensive automation.

I served as a resident AWS architect for large retail programs, led a $20M nationwide technology rollout, and acted as a principal Terraform expert at HashiCorp where I automated repetitive tasks, mentored teams, and helped retain >$4M in ARR.

I prioritise security, observability, and developer experience—implementing Vault-backed access, container security remediation, and modern CI/CD practices to lower MTTR and improve customer satisfaction.
