8+ years across cloud-native infrastructure and software development. I build self-service platforms that let teams provision and run their own infrastructure on Kubernetes.
Sopra Steria
Jan 2025 - Present- Designed and built the platform's self-service ordering API in Go, letting 91 research teams provision infrastructure on demand instead of submitting schemas for manual approval. CRUD endpoints generate Crossplane Claims that a Flux pipeline reconciles into AKS, with 500+ service instances provisioned to date.
- Cut response times on the platform's slowest endpoints from 45s to under 1s for hubs with 100+ services.
- Built a Terraform provider in Go for full lifecycle management of platform services as code.

Sep 2023 - Jan 2025- Aneo (Solar Calculator): DevOps on a React/Python solar-estimation app. Designed the Azure cloud architecture, wrote the Terraform IaC, and built CI/CD. Built out the API, moving the calculation logic server-side behind authentication to protect the proprietary model.
- Flytoget (Flybag): Refactored a single-file Terraform configuration into reusable modules, added CI/CD pipelines, and split out multiple environments.
- MainTech: Led delivery as PM to MVP for a RAG assistant (LLM) over SharePoint/OneDrive.
- Tietoevry: Built internal tooling in Go to support the delivery teams.
Solwr
Oct 2022 - Sep 2023- Built a production voice-and-touch warehouse picking system plus a WMS from scratch (Java, PostgreSQL, Keycloak, Docker, Terraform), replacing a paid third-party voice service to cut licensing costs and enable customer-specific customization.
- Deployed OpenVPN, GitLab, and more with Ansible, Terraform, and Kubernetes.
