Senior🎓
Top SchoolGraham Watts is an AWS Architect and principal engineer with eight years focused on cloud, automation and platform delivery across AWS, Azure and on-premises environments. He combines deep infrastructure expertise—security, networking, virtualization and performance tuning—with hands-on IaC and Kubernetes experience to design multi-account landing zones, migrations and multi-cloud interoperability. As a people manager and technical lead he mentors teams, drives process improvements and champions high-quality documentation and training that tangibly reduce onboarding time and incident resolution. Notable projects include delivering a CIS-compliant AWS Landing Zone and migrating 25 accounts with zero production downtime under a four-month deadline, and designing cross-cloud architectures for DORA-driven regulatory needs. Comfortable moving between low-level OS diagnostics (Windows and Linux) and cloud-native automation, Graham brings rare breadth from datacenter refreshes to EKS, Terraform and AWS Control Tower. Based in Newbury, UK, he pairs pragmatic delivery with a passion for team development and knowledge sharing.
