Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatt Sidwell is a Senior Solutions Engineer with a decade of experience turning enterprise technical roadmaps into shipped POCs and deployable solutions across cloud, IoT, and container platforms. He has driven multimillion-dollar opportunities at AWS through hands‑on architecture, C‑suite engagement, and reusable prototyping assets, and now applies that same pragmatic approach at Infracost. Comfortable in both pre-sales and delivery, he’s redesigned legacy workloads for cloud-native environments, led DevOps teams, and automated complex infrastructure using Terraform, Kubernetes, and CI/CD tooling. Trained as a chemical engineer and economist, he brings a systems-thinking mindset to technical strategy and risk management—often spotting operational gaps early thanks to his background in instrumentation and automation.
