What I do
DevOps, security and compliance engineering for startups and fintechs — from the pipeline to the audit evidence.

DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure
Pipelines, migrations and deployments that don't need you awake at 2 am.
CI/CD on GitHub Actions and GitLab, blue/green deployments with zero downtime, cloud-to-cloud migrations, containerisation and multi-cloud Kubernetes. Recent work includes moving a dozen sites from LAMP 5 to LAMP 8 and migrating a production estate from GCP to DigitalOcean.

Security & Compliance Engineering
The controls and the evidence an auditor asks for — built, not promised.
SOC 2, GLBA and GDPR control and evidence systems, zero-trust network segmentation, IAM audits, centralised audit logging and sensitive-data redaction in log pipelines. I hold the CSO and GDPR DPO roles at a US fintech, so this is day-to-day work, not a checklist.

Observability & Reliability
Know it's broken before your customers tell you.
Logs, metrics and alerting that watch themselves: Loki and ELK pipelines into immutable storage, Prometheus and Grafana dashboards provisioned as code, health probes, retention and disaster-recovery drills.

Fractional CTO
Technical leadership for a startup that needs a CTO before it can afford one.
