I build the Azure platform that serves 13+ Vodafone markets worldwide.
As a Platform Engineer at Vodafone Group, I work on TaaZure, an internal developer platform (IDP) that gives engineering teams across the Group self-service access to compliant, production-ready cloud infrastructure.
Every component I ship is architecture-approved, security-approved, and fully automated. In a global telco, "it works" is not enough. It has to pass enterprise governance, and that is the standard I build to by default.
My daily stack: Azure (AKS, networking, private endpoints), Terraform and Terragrunt, ArgoCD and GitOps delivery, Kyverno policy-as-code, KEDA autoscaling, Karpenter, and self-hosted GitHub Actions runners at scale.
What that means for your project:
→ Infrastructure as Code done properly: modular, reusable Terraform and Terragrunt that your team can actually maintain
→ Kubernetes platforms with governance built in: policies, autoscaling, and cost control from day one, not bolted on later
→ CI/CD pipelines that are secure and auditable, not just fast
→ Enterprise habits at any scale: even a startup deserves infrastructure that will not need rebuilding in a year
Before Vodafone, I ran cloud infrastructure for the largest kids' e-commerce platform in the Middle East and helped build a sovereign cloud platform for enterprises in Saudi Arabia. I have shipped under consumer traffic pressure and under government-grade compliance requirements alike.
If you need cloud infrastructure that is automated, compliant, and built to enterprise standards, let's talk.
