Summary
Mike Morley is a Lead Platform Engineer with 15 years' experience designing, migrating and operating cloud-native infrastructure across AWS and GCP. He has led greenfield builds, large-scale migrations from on‑prem to Kubernetes, and CI/CD and automation efforts using Terraform, Salt, Flux/Spinnaker and GitLab pipelines while mentoring engineering teams. Comfortable across the stack, Mike combines deep Linux systems and HA production support with Python and Bash development, database administration (SQL and NoSQL) and web stack configuration. He pairs a practical user-support background—debugging Windows and macOS hardware/software and managing SLAs—with a proven track record of cost-optimisation and repeatable deployment engineering. Notably, he has repeatedly acted as the SME during major cloud migrations and has a knack for turning legacy, brittle systems into automated, recoverable platforms. Based in London, he brings both hands-on technical craft and clear cross‑team communication to complex infrastructure programmes.
