Summary
Justin King is a Principal DevOps Architect with 11+ years focused on cloud infrastructure and roughly 5 years in the CNCF ecosystem, leading transformations from legacy “lift-and-shift” environments to well-architected AWS and Azure solutions. He architects and delivers infrastructure-as-code, multi-tenant Kubernetes platforms, and standardized CI/CD pipelines, blending deep Windows/Exchange/Virtualization expertise with modern Linux, container, and automation toolchains. Justin has a track record of turning complex enterprise constraints into practical adoption guides, custom tooling (PowerShell/Python), and reusable Terraform/CloudFormation modules that reduce cost and operational risk. He’s comfortable porting popular Linux services into Windows containers to ease migrations for non-Linux shops and has driven both on-prem and cloud-native Kubernetes deployments. Based in Lake Forest, CA, Justin pairs hands-on engineering with governance-minded architecture and a pragmatic appreciation for legacy systems—knowledge he leverages to make modernization realistic for conservative enterprises.
