Cloud Architecture & Strategy

Sound cloud architecture requires more than selecting the right services — it requires understanding your business context, your compliance environment and your long-term trajectory. I help organisations design AWS-first and multi-cloud architectures that are secure, scalable and aligned with their operational reality.

What this includes

  • Cloud architecture assessments and reviews
  • AWS architecture design and consulting
  • Cloud adoption and migration strategy
  • Multi-account environment design
  • AWS Landing Zone architecture
  • Cloud governance frameworks
  • Security and resilience architecture reviews
  • Cloud architecture roadmaps

Cloud Platform Engineering

Building and maintaining cloud infrastructure at scale requires disciplined engineering practices. I design and implement production-grade infrastructure using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code principles, CI/CD automation and platform engineering patterns that give teams a consistent, reliable foundation.

What this includes

  • Infrastructure as Code design and implementation
  • Terraform module architecture
  • CI/CD pipeline design and automation
  • Platform engineering and internal developer platforms
  • Infrastructure standardisation and cataloguing
  • Cloud automation and workflow design
  • Container infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker)

FinOps & Cloud Optimisation

Cloud costs can grow quickly and become difficult to attribute accurately. I help organisations gain clear visibility into their cloud spending, identify inefficiencies and implement the governance structures needed to keep costs aligned with business value over time.

What this includes

  • Cloud cost assessments and audits
  • AWS cost optimisation consulting
  • Resource rightsizing analysis
  • Cost visibility and tagging strategies
  • Financial governance and showback frameworks
  • Reserved instance and savings plan strategies
  • Cloud spend optimisation roadmaps

AI & Cloud Infrastructure

Generative AI applications require careful infrastructure design — data pipelines, model deployment environments, vector databases and retrieval systems all need to work together securely and reliably. I design cloud architectures that support AI applications at production scale.

What this includes

  • Generative AI infrastructure design
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture
  • Cloud infrastructure for AI application deployment
  • Data pipeline architecture for AI workloads
  • Scalable and secure AI platform design
  • Cloud architecture review for AI-powered products
