Justin Lawrence is a seasoned technical engineer with 12+ years of hands-on experience turning complex, high-pressure IT challenges into secure, scalable infrastructure for global organisations. He began on the helpdesk and progressed into architecture and senior engineering roles, specialising in Windows Server, Active Directory, MECM/SCCM, VMware, Microsoft 365, Veeam, and AWS/Azure. Justin has led major migrations and upgrades that cut downtime by over 30%, automated repetitive tasks with PowerShell to save teams hours weekly, and aligned systems to NCSC security frameworks to significantly reduce vulnerabilities. Comfortable producing low-level designs and owning critical incident resolution, he excels at delivering resilient backup and recovery solutions and pragmatic operational documentation. Based in London, he combines enterprise-scale delivery experience across defence, aviation, insurance, and public sector environments with a continuous-improvement mindset focused on deployability, monitoring, and security. An uncommon strength is his career-long blend of frontline support empathy and deep technical architecture—making him effective at both rapid incident response and long-term platform optimisation.
