Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Noble is an Engineering Lead with 20+ years of hands-on experience and eight years focused on platform engineering, CI/CD, and cloud-native infrastructure, currently driving engineering strategy at Royal London from Edinburgh. He has a strong track record at Sky building Kubernetes and GitOps-based developer platforms, scalable GitLab CI runners, and migrating teams off legacy Jenkins while embedding security, observability, and compliance into the SDLC. A pragmatic automation advocate, he reduces developer friction through reusable pipeline templates, integrated quality tools (SonarQube, Snyk, Renovate) and self-service internal services. Michael blends strategic leadership with deep operational experience—from mission-critical billing systems to highly available on-prem clusters—so he equally understands developer needs and enterprise risk. Known for inflicting “ridiculous amounts of Groovy” on Jenkins, he remains a hands-on engineer who mentors teams into CI/CD subject-matter experts. He consistently turns complex regulatory and reliability requirements into developer-friendly, auditable solutions.
