Summary
Brian Philip is a seasoned Cloud Site Reliability and DevOps engineer with over a decade of experience designing, automating, and migrating enterprise platforms across AWS and Azure. He has repeatedly delivered secure, scalable cloud foundations and CI/CD pipelines for major banks and global enterprises, combining Terraform/CloudFormation, Kubernetes/EKS, and configuration tooling like Ansible and Puppet. Comfortable across the full stack—from Linux and databases (Oracle, MySQL, RDS) to serverless Lambda and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Elastic)—he focuses on automation, governance, and resilience. As an independent consultant based in Edinburgh, he brings practical SRE practices to short, high-impact engagements and large-scale migrations alike. Notably, he pairs hands-on scripting and Python work with platform-level thinking, often codifying security and account patterns for multi-account AWS organizations.
