Ben Snape is a seasoned DevOps/Infrastructure Engineer with 14 years’ experience building and operating cloud-native platforms, currently focused on large-scale public sector projects at HM Revenue & Customs. He brings deep AWS expertise (8+ years) and hands-on experience across GCP and Azure, with a strong track record delivering Kubernetes, Istio, Terraform, Ansible and observability-driven solutions for finance, media and energy customers. Ben has repeatedly led greenfield Kubernetes rollouts, complex identity integrations (LDAP/OIDC/Ping) and automated CI/CD and infrastructure pipelines that reduced operational toil. He’s comfortable navigating legacy estates and “infrastructure archaeology,” turning undocumented systems into maintainable, secure platforms. Colleagues rely on him for mentorship during migrations and for pragmatic automation that balances speed with compliance. Based in Stony Stratford, he combines a background in test automation and AI-focused computing with a preference for reproducible, auditable infrastructure.
