Top SchoolKyle Hodgetts is a Senior Engineer with 11 years' experience building cloud-native platforms and developer tooling, currently focusing on Golang, Kubernetes and multi-cloud infrastructure from London.

His hands-on background spans designing Kubernetes operators and gateways (including work on Kusk Gateway), authoring Terraform modules, and automating AWS platform migrations that halved costs and simplified operations. Comfortable working across org-wide teams, Kyle also hires and mentors engineers, delivers technical training, and contributes to open source and technical writing, showing a mix of practical engineering and people leadership.
