What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and improve resilient cloud platforms, Kubernetes estates, infrastructure as code, and secure CI/CD systems, while advising teams and mentoring engineers in modern DevOps practices.

I've built and advised on resilient cloud platforms for Quantum Secret, British Airways, Hargreaves Lansdown, government agencies, and LaunchDarkly. My work centres on infrastructure as code, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and systems designed to recover automatically from failures.

At Quantum Secret, I'm using Terraform for a government AWS platform and designing high-threat cloud systems with threat-actor visibility, supply-chain assurance, vulnerability scanning, SBOM generation, attestation, and signing. I've also delivered reusable AWS deployment pipelines, GitLab CI and CodeBuild workflows, and cloud migration guidance.

I've led architecture decisions, mentored junior engineers, and trained teams in modern DevOps methods. Across AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, Python, Go, and GitOps tooling, I focus on practical platforms that teams can operate confidently.
