Hey, I'm Jack

I'm a platform engineer who loves building infrastructure that just works. I spend most of my time helping teams wrangle Kubernetes, set up observability that actually helps, and build CI/CD pipelines that don't make developers want to cry.

Experience

750+ tickets delivered across production Kubernetes platforms

Expertise

AWS, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Prometheus, Grafana, Terraform, and more

Approach

Pragmatic solutions that actually solve problems

What I'm Good At

I've spent the last few years building and scaling platforms. Here's what I focus on:

  • Kubernetes Platform Engineering: EKS cluster design, upgrades, and optimisation
  • Observability Stacks: Prometheus/Grafana/Loki/Tempo implementation
  • GitOps & CI/CD: ArgoCD implementation and pipeline modernisation
  • Security & Compliance: Runtime security and policy automation

How I Work

I'm not about buzzwords or over-engineering. Here's my approach:

  • Pragmatic over perfect: I build what actually solves your problem, not what looks good in a Medium article
  • Business impact first: Faster deploys and fewer incidents matter more than cool tech
  • End-to-end ownership: I don't just consult and disappear—I stick around to make sure it works
  • GitOps everything: If it's not in Git, it doesn't exist

What I'm Up To Now

🎓

Currently Studying

MSc in Artificial Intelligence (Full-time)
Building on my BSc in Computer Science to explore the intersection of AI and platform engineering.

Excited about applying ML/AI to infrastructure automation, anomaly detection in observability systems, and intelligent platform tooling.
