Summary
Francois Delport is a Solutions Architect based in Greater Melbourne with over 10 years’ experience designing and delivering Azure, DevOps and Microsoft-stack solutions across enterprise and consulting environments. He has led PAAS/IAAS migrations, authored CI/CD pipelines, and enforced strict security and deployment patterns for greenfield and legacy application moves.
