Cloud architect.
Strategic technologist.
Designing cloud foundations that work in the real world.
I'm Evan Bedolla, a Principal Cloud Architect with hands-on experience designing, engineering and supporting cloud environments across enterprise and public-sector contexts. My work sits at the intersection of cloud strategy, infrastructure engineering and platform design.
My primary focus is on AWS — designing multi-account environments, landing zones and governance frameworks that give organisations a secure and scalable foundation to build on. I also bring working experience across Google Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), which gives me a grounded perspective when organisations are evaluating multi-cloud or migration strategies.
On the engineering side, I design and build infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code principles, with an emphasis on automation, repeatability and platform standardisation. I believe good cloud infrastructure should be invisible to the teams that use it — reliable, well-governed and easy to understand.
More recently, I've been working in environments where Generative AI applications are becoming a core part of the platform — designing the cloud infrastructure and data architecture that supports RAG pipelines, model deployment and AI-powered services. This is an area I find genuinely interesting, both technically and strategically.
Outside of technical delivery, I'm interested in the consultancy and advisory side of cloud architecture — helping leadership teams make better decisions about cloud strategy, cost governance and technical direction.
I'm currently based in Spain and work across English and Spanish environments.
How I approach cloud work.
Strategy before implementation
Good cloud architecture starts with understanding the business context — the operational requirements, the growth trajectory and the constraints. I take the time to understand the situation before recommending solutions.
Modular and reproducible
Infrastructure designed to be modular, version-controlled and repeatable. Whether it's a Terraform module structure or a multi-account design pattern, I build things that are easy to maintain and evolve.
Security and governance by default
Security and governance considerations are built into architecture decisions from the start — not treated as afterthoughts. This includes IAM design, network architecture, compliance boundaries and cost visibility.
Practical and long-term thinking
Cloud environments change over time. I design architectures that serve immediate needs while remaining adaptable — avoiding unnecessary complexity and over-engineering that creates technical debt.
