Senior🎓
Top SchoolJerry Steele is a Technical Consultant and platform engineer with 11 years’ experience designing, automating and operating cloud-native and on-prem infrastructure for clients across finance, government and ecommerce. He specialises in Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Terragrunt), Ansible-driven configuration management, and container orchestration (Kubernetes/Rancher, ECS/Fargate), with a pragmatic focus on DRY, testable IaC and scalable observability. Jerry has repeatedly been brought in to modernise platforms and clear technical debt—delivering secure CI/CD pipelines, multi-cloud networking and production-ready deployments for complex services. He pairs deep systems-level troubleshooting (bare metal, virtualization and networking) with hands-on developer support, often building the glue between security appliances, load balancers and application stacks. Based in Greater Brighton, he combines a long-standing Linux/sysadmin pedigree with a knack for pragmatic automation and platform design that reduces operational toil.
