Top SchoolAlistair De B Clarkson is an Associate Director DevSecOps in Sydney with 11 years of engineering experience and a strong track record of blending hands-on full‑stack development with security and platform leadership. He has led DevSecOps and engineering teams at Service NSW, driving secure-by-design practices, threat modelling for dozens of releases, and award-winning digital delivery while scaling microservice architectures on Kubernetes and AWS. Comfortable in languages from JavaScript/TypeScript (MERN, React, Node, NestJS) to C# and Unity3D, he has moved between CTO roles in startups and technical lead positions in mid-sized organisations to solve product, architecture and operational challenges.

That mix of product-facing architecture, security stewardship and practical implementation makes him adept at translating business risk into deployable, measurable engineering outcomes.
