Cloud & platform engineering

Operational backbones engineered
for resilience and control.

Cloud architecture, platform engineering and DevSecOps across AWS, Azure and GCP — designed for 99.999% availability, +74% release velocity and measurable operational performance. 900+ servers, 3M+ transactions/day.

Platforms that run the organisation

Cloud transformation that reduces cost without reducing control. Platform engineering that gives development teams speed without bypassing security. Operations that run at 99.999% availability because reliability was designed in — not bolted on in post-incident reviews. The baseline: 900+ servers governed, 3M+ daily transactions, active-active HA across multiple availability zones.

What I offer

Platform engineering services

☁️
Cloud architecture (multi-cloud)

AWS, Azure, GCP reference architectures with security, resilience, cost-control and compliance guardrails. Hybrid and sovereign cloud patterns.

99.999% availability
🏗️
Platform engineering & IDP

Internal developer platform design — golden paths, self-service provisioning, environment parity, guardrail-as-code. Dev velocity without shadow IT.

+74% release velocity
🔒
DevSecOps & CI/CD

Security-embedded pipelines — SAST, DAST, SCA, container scanning, policy-as-code. Security gates that don't slow delivery.

Zero exceptions in prod
📈
Observability & SRE

Observability stack (metrics, logs, traces), SLO/SLA governance, on-call runbooks, toil elimination. 55% MTTR reduction.
