Michael Copland is a Cloud Engineering Team Lead with a decade of experience building and shipping backend systems using Node.js and Python on AWS, guided by a strong academic foundation in Mathematics and Computer Science from Oxford. He progressed from Arduino-driven personal projects and self-taught C/C++ to pragmatic production engineering, contributing across CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure. Michael has held software engineering roles at London-based startups and scale-ups including OakNorth, Layer, Loxo, and now leads cloud engineering at sees.ai. He is expanding his full‑stack skillset into React, Django, and GraphQL, bridging frontend and backend development. Known for rapid learning and practical delivery, he particularly enjoys seeing ideas move from code to production. Based in London, he combines theoretical rigour with hands-on systems work and a taste for hardware-rooted tinkering that informs his engineering approach.
