Senior🎓
Top SchoolBenny Lo is a Lead Cloud Engineer based in Melbourne with over a decade of hands-on experience designing, building and operating resilient cloud platforms across finance, entertainment, ISP, e-commerce and supply chain industries. He blends a deep networking and hardware background with modern cloud-native practices, translating early-career infrastructure skills into scalable AWS architectures, cost optimisations and migration programs. Benny specialises in SRE and DevOps uplift—introducing SLOs, observability (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana) and automated CI/CD to reduce toil and improve release confidence. He has a track record of tangible wins such as a 65% AWS cost reduction, multi-region serverless deployments, and delivering production workloads from scratch for large enterprise applications. A natural mentor, he actively coaches junior engineers and builds runbooks and knowledge bases so teams remain autonomous after he moves on. He’s curious about cyber security and routinely upskills in new languages and instrumentation techniques, having personally added Golang tracing to improve Lambda observability.
