Summary
Ahmed Touati is a Senior DevOps/Platform Engineer with a decade of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure, currently focused on scaling Fastned’s platform from the Netherlands. He brings deep AWS and Kubernetes expertise—EKS, Terraform/CloudFormation, ArgoCD, Istio and a broad monitoring and chaos-testing toolkit—to deliver resilient, automated platforms for banking, insurance and enterprise workloads. His background as a technical lead at VERMEG shows hands-on ownership of networking, storage, databases, access controls and cost-optimized compute (spot instances, ASGs) across multi-cloud environments. Ahmed combines platform automation with deployment strategies (blue/green, canary) and DR planning, and has practical experience with GitLab CI/CD, container registries and policy tooling. He has a formal engineering education from ESPRIT and ISIMM and a history of moving from MERN development into platform engineering, which gives him a pragmatic appreciation for developer experience as well as operations. Notably, he pairs advanced chaos-testing practices with cost-aware architecture choices, enabling both reliability and efficiency at scale.
