Senior🎓
Top SchoolCaroline Johnston is a cloud engineering manager in Wellington with 15 years of experience bridging bioinformatics, Linux systems, and cloud operations. After a PhD in bioinformatics she built and managed HPC and research IT platforms at King's College and NIWA before moving to AWS where she supported enterprise customers as a Technical Account Manager. Now leading Cloud at MetService, she combines hands-on Linux and infrastructure skills with customer-focused cloud strategy and operational excellence. Her background means she speaks both the language of researchers and of large-scale cloud teams, making her adept at translating complex scientific workloads into reliable, cost-effective cloud architectures. A recovering bioinformatician who still tinkers with Linux, she brings uncommon depth in data-intensive workloads and a track record of turning research-grade systems into production-ready services.
