Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrian Macauley is a seasoned platform and cloud engineering leader with 15 years of experience designing and operating large-scale AWS architectures and platform teams across healthtech, biotech, and enterprise software. Currently Head of Platform, he has a track record of moving organisations from legacy systems to automated, IaC-driven cloud platforms and building EKS/Kubernetes tooling to support microservices at scale. His background spans hands-on technical roles from telecoms and VoIP to strategic cloud architecture at Deloitte and Diaceutics, giving him a rare blend of low-level systems insight and enterprise cloud strategy. Known for mentoring engineering teams and driving adoption of DevOps practices, he combines strong delivery focus with governance and compliance awareness in regulated industries. Based in Belfast, he pairs an electrical engineering foundation with pragmatic product-focused platform design and a reputation for “getting stuff done.” An understated strength is his continuity of impact—leading platform transformations end-to-end rather than just advising on architecture.
