Cloud & Infrastructure

Hand-built cloud infrastructure works right up until the person who built it leaves. I define infrastructure entirely as code — repeatable, reviewable, and documented by its nature.

Who this is for

  • You’re outgrowing shared hosting or one overworked VM and need real architecture
  • Your AWS bill — or your AWS setup — has become something nobody fully understands
  • You want Kubernetes without the on-call pain of running it blind
  • Security or compliance pressure means IAM and networking need doing properly

What you get

  • AWS architecture designed to certified best practice — EKS, EC2, VPC, ALB, RDS, S3, IAM, by an AWS Certified Solutions Architect
  • Azure administration — certified AZ-104, for Microsoft-cloud environments
  • Terraform for everything — reusable modules, remote state on HCP Terraform, every change reviewed before it applies
  • Kubernetes clusters done properly — Helm add-ons, IRSA security, multi-AZ resilience
  • Right-sizing over over-engineering — a simple site gets simple infrastructure, and your bill reflects it

How a project runs

  1. Scope — a short call and a fixed quote. If I’m not the right fit, I’ll say so and point you somewhere better.
  2. Build — work in the open, with progress you can see instead of waiting for a reveal.
  3. Ship — automated and tested. Launches here are boring on purpose.
  4. Run — monitoring and maintenance through a monthly Care Plan, or a clean documented handover if you’d rather run it yourself.

Why me?

The certifications cover the whole stack — AWS Solutions Architect, Azure AZ-104, CKA for Kubernetes, Terraform Associate, and CCNA for the networking underneath it all. And it’s not just client work: this site runs on AWS infrastructure I designed and provisioned with Terraform myself.

The practical details

  • Fixed quote before we start — no surprise invoices, ever. See pricing for where projects typically land.
  • You own everything — the code, the accounts, the infrastructure. No lock-in to me or anyone else.
  • A real timeline with the quote — you’ll know the delivery date before you commit a dollar.
  • Tools I reach for: AWS, Azure, Terraform + HCP Terraform, Kubernetes, Helm, Kustomize.

Tell me what you’re building — I’ll tell you honestly if I’m the right fit.
