Kubernetes Consulting

End-to-end Kubernetes adoption for engineering teams — from initial cluster design and provisioning to multi-cluster strategies, security hardening, and cost optimisation. I work with managed Kubernetes offerings (EKS, GKE, AKS) as well as on-prem deployments.

  • Cluster design & architecture review
  • Production-readiness assessment
  • Workload migration from legacy infrastructure
  • Horizontal & vertical autoscaling strategies
  • Network policies, RBAC, and secrets management

DevOps Engineering

Building the CI/CD backbone and automation layer that lets your team ship fast and reliably. I design GitOps-first pipelines, integrate observability tooling, and automate infrastructure lifecycle management.

  • CI/CD pipeline design (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Argo Workflows, Jenkins, Tekton)
  • GitOps with Argo CD or Flux
  • Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, Pulumi or Config Connector
  • Observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki)

Cloud Engineering

Designing and operating cloud infrastructure on GCP and AWS — from account and network foundations to managed services, cost governance, and security baselines. I help teams build cloud environments that are reliable, auditable, and ready to scale.

  • GCP and AWS architecture design & landing zones
  • Managed services adoption (Cloud Run, GKE, EKS, RDS, Cloud SQL)
  • Networking: VPCs, peering, Private Service Connect, Transit Gateway
  • IAM, service accounts, and least-privilege access models
  • Cost optimisation and resource governance

Cloud Native Development

Helping teams design and refactor applications to thrive in cloud environments — grounded in 12-factor principles and modern distributed systems patterns. I work with development teams to close the gap between how software is written and how it runs in production.

  • 12-factor app assessment and refactoring guidance
  • Stateless service design and externalised configuration
  • Backing services: databases, queues, caches, and secret management
  • Health checks, graceful shutdown, and container lifecycle alignment
  • Distributed tracing and structured logging for cloud workloads

Trainings

Hands-on training sessions tailored for engineering teams — covering container and Kubernetes fundamentals through to developer-focused certification prep. Sessions can be delivered remotely or on-site.

  • Kubernetes Fundamentals — core concepts, architecture, and day-to-day operations
  • Kubernetes for Developers (CKAD) — workloads, configuration, networking, and exam prep
  • Docker for Developers — images, containers, volumes, and Compose workflows
