Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRory Bryett is a Senior DevOps Engineer with a decade of hands-on experience delivering cloud and on-premise infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and automation across public sector and gaming industries. He blends software engineering (Golang, Python, Ruby) with platform and data engineering—having built automation platforms, custom Terraform providers, and an AWS/on‑prem data analytics platform for large government projects. Rory’s background includes deep work in Hadoop ecosystems, container orchestration (ECS/Docker), and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK), which informs his pragmatic approach to system design. He’s comfortable challenging conventional “best practices” after seeing real-world trade-offs between cloud vs on‑prem and NoSQL vs RDBMS in high-stakes programs. Based in Bradford, he now leads delivery of complex solutions at DWP with a strong emphasis on orchestration, data technologies and production reliability. A noted but understated strength is his ability to move between low-level infrastructure (networking, VMware, iDRAC) and higher-level automation, making him effective at bridging ops and engineering teams.
