Top SchoolElton Stoneman is a London-based director, consultant and trainer with 13+ years helping organisations adopt cloud-native and container technologies, blending hands-on engineering with strategic architecture. A Docker Captain, 14x Microsoft Azure MVP and long-time Pluralsight and Manning author, he pairs deep platform expertise with practical teaching experience.

Comfortable across backend development, databases and DevOps, he’s as likely to write production Go services or SQL Server deployment scripts as he is to design scalable CI/CD pipelines. His background in history and psychology underpins a rare mix of technical rigour and clear communication that makes complex systems accessible.
