Independent Cloud & DevOps Consultant
Solve the infrastructure problems slowing down your engineering team.
I help growing SaaS engineering teams solve production infrastructure, cloud cost, reliability and software delivery problems through focused, defined-outcome consulting projects.
Problems I help solve
Clear problems. Measurable outcomes.
Each project is scoped around a specific problem, desired outcome and your environment, rather than providing ongoing engineering capacity.
Cloud costs are growing unexpectedly
Identify what is driving unnecessary spend, implement priority improvements and establish better cost visibility and control.
Reliability issues are consuming engineering time
Identify production risks and improve availability, observability, recovery and scalability so your infrastructure stays reliable as usage grows.
Deployments are slow or fragile
Diagnose release bottlenecks and make deployments faster, safer and more repeatable.
Provisioning and infrastructure changes take too much manual effort
Standardise and automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration and environment changes so deployments are repeatable, auditable and easier to maintain.
Infrastructure is not keeping pace with growth
Redesign or migrate infrastructure that has become difficult to scale, operate or maintain, with security, resilience and compliance requirements built into the architecture.
The symptoms are clear, but the root cause is not
Diagnose the problem, identify root causes, prioritise improvements and implement the agreed remediation.
Recent client outcome
Measured improvement for a HealthTech SaaS team
For a HealthTech SaaS team, I helped redesign and migrate its Azure infrastructure, improve CI/CD and address cloud cost and scalability issues.
How I work
Focused consulting around an agreed outcome.
The aim is to understand what needs to improve, find the root cause and deliver the changes that create the most value.
Understand
We discuss the symptoms, context and business or engineering impact.
Diagnose
I review the relevant infrastructure, architecture, cloud environment or delivery process.
Define
We agree the project scope, desired outcome, deliverables and success criteria.
Deliver
I implement the agreed improvements and measure the resulting change.
Start with the problem
Have an infrastructure problem that needs solving?
Tell me briefly what is happening. We can determine whether it makes sense to turn it into a focused consulting project.
