Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMike Reed is a seasoned technical support engineer with 12 years of experience designing and maintaining secure networking solutions for environments ranging from home broadband to large retail chains. Based in East Hampshire, he currently supports core-to-edge infrastructure at a UK colocation and ISP, working regularly with Juniper, Cisco, VMware and increasingly Fortinet, and holds Fortinet NSE3 and Veeam VMTSP certifications. He has founded and led technical teams—co-founding early Windows hosting through Axamba and serving as CTO at Xiria—bringing hands-on operational expertise in peering, backup (Veeam) and cloud migrations. An active community leader since 2005 with distributed.net, he pairs practical engineering with volunteer-driven coordination and a curiosity for complex cryptographic and distributed problems. Not obvious from his title: he’s equally comfortable at protocol-level troubleshooting and shaping customer-facing backup and availability services.
