I am an IT Consultant specializing in cloud migrations and strategies, focused on designing tailored solutions that enable organizations to fully leverage cloud adoption. Drawing on my background as a Full-Stack Developer, I understand the challenges and constraints traditional product teams face. I am committed to sharing knowledge and delivering strategies that align with each organization’s unique needs. My network of freelancing colleagues can provide additional specialized workforce for any short term migration and build up plan.
The main aspect is to make your cloud experience as smooth as possible. Whether your goal is to migrate initially to the cloud or to reassemble your current cloud strategies I can provide guidance and help you understand the impact on your organisation.
Providing a mechanism on how to ensure that your system ist healthy and available. I can help you setting up a emergency response, monitoring strategy and other aspects of SRE to secure your system from outages. With the main goal of unlocking the agility of your System while not violating any service's SLO.
One of the most important parts for me is to spread the knowledge within your organisation. Giving trainings and spread knowledge is a crucial aspect of a successful cloud migration.
Led the end-to-end migration of product teams to GCP and GitHub Enterprise, eliminating nearly all on-premise costs through cloud adoption. Designed and implemented an automated backup and disaster recovery strategy, reducing backup costs by 80%. Standardized inter-service security using Anthos Service Mesh and GKE Enterprise. Reduced annual costs by migrating on-premise traffic from Meshery to Apigee. Optimized CI/CD pipelines by migrating from Jenkins to GitHub Actions. Developed and executed cloud strategies for seamless transitions, security planning, and legacy system integrations. Led the design of an authorization framework combining GCP, GitHub Enterprise, and Okta, while introducing Terraform-based GitHub Actions to streamline cloud infrastructure.
