IT Specialist / Fractional CTO / Consulting CTO

My core skill is in building IT systems and teams that work. That means using tried and true technologies and techniques, as opposed today's disturbing trend of inexperienced people hacking what is at best PoC quality systems using inappropriate and non-performant technologies.

As CTO, I build and run highly effective teams, delivering results under high-pressure business conditions. I am technically very hands-on, so I that I can insure that what my team is building will work. My leadership ability is backed by 30 years of deep experience in all areas of IT and hundreds of different technologies.

As a software engineer and architect, I have a knack for building complex systems that work efficiently and reliably. I model systems and processes in a way that accounts for all the business requirements as well as the concerns of stability, performance, HA and long-term operations. I particularly specialise in large-scale, complex, data-driven workloads on Azure and AWS.

Summary:

  * 25 years management experience, from team leader to CTO/CIO to CEO/MD
  * 15+ years AWS and Azure cloud experience - architecture, development, delivery, operations - in single-cloud, hybrid, multi-cloud and global cloud models.

Specialist in Cloud architecture (Azure, AWS), DevOps Implementations and data-driven applications.

I have 30 years of experience in every area of IT and with dozens of technologies and paradigms. But most importantly, I have a track record of producing practical architectures for highly-performant, highly-stable and easily-manageable IT systems.

My success is based on my talent for modelling complex systems and processes in a way that addresses not only core business requirements, but also the concerns of project management, functionality, stability, performance and long-term management.

When you need someone who really knows what they're doing, get in touch. No problem too big or too small.

SEEKING WORK | REMOTE WORLDWIDE | Based in the EU and available worldwide

I specialise in designing and implementing logging & monitoring solutions for complex, mission-critical applications on diverse infrastructures. My experience comes from decades of work in SE, SRE, DevOps, Cloud Architect, Enterprise Architect and senior development roles. I have an innate understanding of complex systems and a deep knowledge of dozens of tools and services.

I can help on virtually any logging & monitoring issue you have, whether on a legacy in-house platform or for a greenfield multi-cloud, multi-region application. I know how to use most ITOA tools, and when they don't do the trick, I write bespoke tooling for specialised situations. I create single-pane-of-dashboards that deliver timely information and empower operational staff.

Above all, the goal I try to achieve in any engagement is to deliver a solution that finds problems before they lead to full-blown outages.

  - Organisational-level DevOps tooling and security implementations
  - Global Azure infrastructure deployment, management and security (Terraform, DevOps, KMS, AppGw)
  - Python-based SRE scripting for monitoring custom federated clusters using Consul, Vault, Nomad
  - Productionalising Kafka and Confluent clusters (SSL, SASL, ACLs, Debezium)
  - Tracking down performance bottlenecks in Elasticsearch and Solr
  - Stabilisation of complex Java-based containerised applications
  - Validation of greenfield project designs
  - Single-pane-of-glass dashboard design in Datadog, Splunk and Azure
  - Deploying a global, multi-cloud, Kubernetes-based PaaS (AWS and Azure)
