Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAxel Latvala is a Cloud & DevOps Architect with over a decade of hands-on experience transitioning from full-stack development to designing and operating cloud-native platforms. A GCP Professional Cloud Architect and seasoned DevOps practitioner, he has built CI/CD platforms, automated infrastructure with Terraform and Ansible, and deployed services across AWS, GCP, Hetzner and on-prem KVM environments. At Eficode and Rebase Consulting he guided teams on scalable Kubernetes, Vault-based secrets management, and Jenkins/ECS Fargate integrations, while running production infrastructure and custom applications as CTO of his family company. Comfortable in PHP, NodeJS and SQL ecosystems, he also brings practical networking and backup expertise (OpenVPN/IPSec, Borg) that helps bridge dev and ops gaps. Based in Raseborg, Finland, Axel prefers non-Windows stacks, keeps most of his work in Bitbucket, and is known for pragmatic, security-conscious platform engineering rather than flashy evangelism.
