Services offered
I help tech‑driven teams ship secure, high‑performance products - fast.
What I do
- DevSecOps & Cloud: Design and harden AWS/Azure/Kubernetes estates with Terraform‑driven IaC, automated CI/CD, and ISO 27001‑aligned security gates.
- Blockchain & Web3: Build Solana and EVM smart contracts, on‑chain data pipelines, and wallet integrations that scale from MVP to millions of transactions.
- Backend Engineering: Craft event‑driven microservices in Rust, Python, and Node.js, tuned for reliability and maintainability.
- Low‑latency Systems: Optimise trading and data‑streaming engines to handle sub‑millisecond workloads and 600‑700 RPS traffic spikes.
- Leadership: Mentor cross‑functional teams, set technical direction, and embed FinOps practices that cut cloud spend while raising engineering velocity.
In short, I deliver secure, cloud‑native solutions that move quickly and perform under pressure while growing the people and processes behind them.
