Hi, I’m Alexander Tweedale, a DevOps and Platform Developer with a background in building secure, scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS and Azure, Terraform-driven IaC, and Kubernetes clusters. I’ve designed and operated enterprise-grade environments, implemented deployment pipelines, and ensured governance and security requirements are met across global teams. I also bring hands-on experience in on-call support and cross-functional collaboration with security, platform, and application teams. I enjoy translating complex requirements into reusable automation, mentoring developers, and fostering a 'build it, run it, own it' culture. My experience spans front-line IT operations and end-user support, which helps me design resilient systems that are practical for real-world use.
