Top SchoolGraham Nicholls is a Cloud DevOps Engineer based in London with three decades of IT experience and a decade focused on cloud, automation and Unix/Linux infrastructure. He leads a small team at Macquarie Group, delivering engineering solutions—automation with Ansible, containerisation with Docker, monitoring with Grafana/InfluxDB/Collectd—and has been working extensively with AWS (and exploring GCP). A pragmatic programmer and long-time Unix/C enthusiast, he’s recently embraced Go for its speed and simplicity while maintaining a strong preference for readable, well-structured code. Graham also enjoys teaching—he’s taught Unix/Linux, Python and AWS for around 20 years—and finds mentoring particularly rewarding. Outside work he’s an active cyclist, sailor and climber who appreciates cryptic crosswords and a well-designed UI.
