Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMartin Caarels is a Lead Engineer based in Wellington, New Zealand, with 11 years focused on cloud, DevOps and SRE practices at organisations including Kiwibank, Spark and Leaven. He designs and operates CI/CD pipelines and [I,P,S]AAS environments with a pragmatic, technology-agnostic approach, favoring outcomes over tool allegiance. Martin has progressed from hands-on infrastructure roles to leading cloud practices and chapters, blending technical depth in AWS and platform engineering with team leadership. Known for a whip-smart, restless curiosity (self-described as “weaponised A.D.D.”), he thrives in fast-moving projects and bringing order to complex delivery lifecycles. Unobvious: he moves comfortably between deep implementation work and organisational coaching, often stepping into interim practice-lead roles to accelerate capability uplift.
