Summary
Andy Roberts is a DevOps Technical Lead with 9 years focused on cloud and platform engineering, currently leading Platform Operations at Vista Group with deep hands-on expertise in Azure, AWS and Kubernetes. He blends site reliability, automation and infrastructure-as-code — notably Terraform, CloudFormation and Ansible — to drive repeatable, scalable deployments and migrations. Andy pairs cloud-first skills with extensive on-premise experience (VMware, HP 3PAR) and certifications as an Azure Administrator and AWS Solutions Architect, enabling pragmatic hybrid solutions. He has repeatedly led large migrations and automation programs, including multi-tenant fleet platform builds and on-premise-to-AWS migrations for major customers. Known for shrinking deployment windows from days to under an hour via idempotent automation, he treats learning as a core practice and readily owns gaps to close them. Based in Auckland, he combines systems-administration breadth across Windows, Linux and Mac with a knack for turning legacy stacks into fully automated platforms.
