Cloud & platform engineering

I make cloud platforms easier to run.

I'm Scott, an engineer who turns complex AWS environments into reliable, automated platforms that development teams can move quickly on.

Engineering the path between an idea and a dependable service.

I work across infrastructure, delivery pipelines, observability, and incident response. My sweet spot is finding the friction in a platform—manual work, recurring failures, unclear ownership—and replacing it with a system teams can understand and trust.

01

Cloud platforms

AWS architecture, infrastructure as code, IAM, networking, and cost-aware operations.

02

Automation

Terraform, Ansible, Python, Jenkins, and GitHub Actions that remove toil from delivery.

03

Reliability

Incident response, root-cause analysis, observability, and resilient system design.

04

Developer experience

Self-service tooling, useful documentation, and enablement that help teams unblock themselves.

From cloud support to platform ownership.

A career built around making sophisticated systems work better for the people who depend on them.
