Top SchoolKris Holdich is a Principal Cloud Infrastructure Engineer based in London with 12 years of experience designing and operating cloud-native platforms across GCP, AWS and Azure. He has led migrations and replatforming efforts, built Kubernetes fleets (GKE/AKS/EKS), and automated infrastructure using Terraform, Pulumi and Python to deliver resilient, cost-optimized systems. Kris combines hands-on automation—GitHub Actions, Buildkite, Octopus—and deep observability practice with Prometheus, Grafana, Loki and tracing to drive service-level monitoring and rapid incident resolution. He has a track record of reducing costs and deployment times through containerisation and network re-architecture, while mentoring engineers and improving operational maturity. His background in AI (BA Hons) and early electrical engineering training underpin a pragmatic, systems-thinking approach to complex cloud problems. Notably, he balances strategic architecture with day-to-day delivery, from Snowflake provisioning to secure ingress and CI/CD pipelines.
