Summary
Darren M is a Lead DevSecOps Engineer based in Edinburgh with 11 years’ experience designing and delivering cloud-native platforms across AWS and Azure. He combines hands-on software engineering (.NET, C#, GraphQL, React) with deep infrastructure expertise—Kubernetes, AKS, service meshes, Terraform and secure CI/CD—to move large, regulated organisations toward resilient, automated deployments. As a technical lead he has migrated monoliths to microservices, implemented multi-region Kubernetes fabrics and unified identity and GraphQL layers to enable SSO and cross-system data access. Comfortable bridging client-facing requirements and delivery, he’s repeatedly built zero-trust, managed-identity solutions that removed manual key management. Energetic and tenacious (his GitHub bio admits he “never learned his place”), he brings both curiosity and pragmatism to complex cloud security challenges.
