Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimon Peacock is a Senior DevOps Engineer with 11+ years of experience modernising and consolidating complex Drupal ecosystems into scalable, automated platforms across media and enterprise clients. He blends deep Drupal expertise (7/8/9) with cloud-native infrastructure work—driving migrations to Docker, AWS, GitHub Actions and observability via HoneyComb and OpenTelemetry. At Carwow he reduced non-production build times by two-thirds, led a zero-downtime Jenkins→GitHub Actions migration, and automated deployments and tagging to cut manual toil. His background in high-end image retouching and front-end UI work gives him a rare cross-discipline perspective that informs both editorial UX and backend automation. He’s pragmatic about cost and performance, having implemented reserved instances and created company-wide software budgets and tech-debt reporting. Known for turning fragmented multi-site estates into single, testable Drupal profiles, he consistently delivers measurable operational improvements.
