AWS Cloud & DevOps Engineer with a full-stack engineering background — I help businesses build, automate, and scale reliable cloud infrastructure on AWS. ☁️ CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE & AWS I architect and deploy multi-tier applications on AWS — EC2, Application Load Balancers, Auto Scaling Groups, VPC, and Route 53 private hosted zones — with layered security group architecture for production-grade isolation. I provision infrastructure using Shell scripting and Infrastructure as Code, and have set up backend service layers (MySQL, Memcache, RabbitMQ) across secure private network architectures. 🔄 CI/CD & AUTOMATION I build CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and Docker to automate testing, builds, and deployments. I containerize applications with Docker and am extending into Kubernetes orchestration and GitOps workflows. 🛠 FULL-STACK DEVELOPMENT 5+ years building production applications in Java/Spring Boot, Node.js/Express, and React. This means I understand the applications I deploy, not just the infrastructure around them — I can own the full pipeline from code to cloud. 🤖 AI INTEGRATION I integrate AI/LLM APIs into existing applications for clients who want intelligent features added without a full rebuild. Currently focused on AWS cloud and DevOps work: infrastructure setup, CI/CD pipeline builds, containerization, and cloud migrations. Open to hourly or fixed-price engagements — let's talk about your infrastructure.

Over 20 years of experience in tech. My most recent work: - ETL to upload Excel Financial Reports, then process and consolidate them into fit for purpose regulatory reports. - IoT Data Ingestion into S3, then process the data using event driven architecture in AWS, finally creating emailed reports to send to users. - SaaS platform that I built and own called Nopaque. Automates the testing of organisations telephony services, by mapping journeys, testing paths and performing function/load tests. - RantClub, a small experiment and fun website to showcase Deepgrams APIs and how they can be used to classify and summarise transcripts. Before this most recent work (last 2 years). I was the Director of Engineering for over 100 staff and remained hands on 'in the moment'. Prior to this, I was a CTO that lead a team of about 60 and had influence over the wider organisation. I participated in multiple MVP builds, two of which eventually went on to become offerings that increased our company value by over 60% before sale. - The first was engineering and delivery of Amazon Connect, with utilities/tools that we could drop in and accelerate adoption of the technology. In this role I worked with 3 large UK banks. - The second was our approach to MLOps - in which we were able to begin the journey for a major UK bank who are now considered one of the leaders in this space. During and prior to this, I was a full time Cloud Architect/Engineer - having held all 5 core AWS exams between 2016 - 2020.
