Consulting & Services
I architect cloud platforms that let engineering teams ship faster, scale reliably, and stop firefighting infrastructure.
Platform Transformation Strategy
From zero to fully automated multi-account cloud architecture in weeks, not months. I design and implement the foundational platform your engineering teams will build on for years.
What this looks like
- Complete multi-account AWS architecture designed from scratch
- AWS Control Tower with automated account provisioning via Terraform
- OPA security policies and private module registry
- GitOps-driven infrastructure with full audit trails
- IAM Identity Center (SSO), Service Control Policies, and security baselines
- GuardDuty, Security Hub, and Access Analyzer baked in from day one
The outcome
A client went from loosely managed AWS accounts to a fully automated, security-hardened multi-account architecture - with automated provisioning, policy-as-code guardrails, and SSO across every account - delivered in weeks.
Services
Cloud Architecture & Migration
Scalable cloud architectures on AWS, Azure, or GCP. Multi-cloud strategy, migration planning, disaster recovery, and high-availability design.
Kubernetes & Container Platforms
Production-grade Kubernetes with proper security, networking, and developer experience. EKS, AKS, GKE, service mesh, and GitOps with ArgoCD/Flux.
Infrastructure as Code
Terraform architecture, module design, CI/CD automation, and infrastructure testing. From monolithic configs to reusable, composable modules.
DevSecOps & Security
Security integrated into every layer: container scanning, zero-trust networking, policy-as-code, compliance automation, and Kubernetes hardening.
Observability & SRE
Comprehensive monitoring with Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry. SLO/SLI frameworks, incident response processes, and reliability engineering.
Cost Optimization
Cloud cost analysis, right-sizing, reserved instance strategy, and FinOps practices. Cut waste without sacrificing performance or reliability.
How We Work Together
Advisory & Strategy
Week-long assessment of your current infrastructure, architecture review, and a clear roadmap with prioritised recommendations. Ideal for leadership teams planning major platform initiatives.
Hands-On Implementation
Embedded with your team for 1-3 months. I build alongside your engineers, deliver production-ready infrastructure, and transfer knowledge as I go. You keep the expertise when I leave.
Team Training & Mentorship
Workshops, code reviews, and ongoing mentorship to upskill your engineering team on Kubernetes, Terraform, cloud-native architecture, and DevOps best practices.
