Description

Enterprise & Cloud Architect

Extensive experience in designing and delivering secure, scalable and future-ready digital platforms within complex enterprise environments.

I help organisations with cloud transformation, platform modernisation, governance challenges and the integration of modern technologies such as AI, data platforms and cloud-native architectures. I combine strategic architectural thinking with a hands-on mindset and a strong focus on collaboration between business, security and engineering teams.

My background includes enterprise architecture, cloud platforms (AWS/Azure), integrations, security & compliance and ServiceNow governance solutions (IRM/GRC/SecOps). In addition, I am increasingly focused on AI governance, sovereign cloud and the secure and responsible adoption of AI within enterprise environments.

I have experience working within regulated sectors and complex organisations where reliability, governance, security and stakeholder alignment are essential.

Examples of assignments and focus areas include:

Cloud-native platform architecture
Enterprise integrations & API landscapes
Governance, risk & compliance
CMDB / data foundations
Platform modernisation & operational resilience
AI platform enablement & secure AI adoption
Architecture within Agile / SAFe organisations

What distinguishes me is the combination of:

Strong technical foundation
Enterprise architecture experience
Governance & security expertise
Pragmatic approach
Ability to bridge strategy and implementation

I enjoy working on assignments where technology, governance and innovation come together and where architecture genuinely contributes to sustainable change and business value.
