Senior🎓
Top SchoolTim Payne is a cloud architecture consultant and principal software engineer with 11+ years of enterprise experience driving DevOps, release management and cloud migrations for regulated sectors like finance and retail. He combines hands-on systems development (C/C++, Java, databases) with strategic design and tooling—Terraform, Kubernetes, Argo, Helm, Azure, GCP—to create secure, scalable provisioning and CI/CD platforms. Tim has repeatedly led product curation and DevEx initiatives (notably at Lloyds and IKEA) that turn complex multi-vendor environments into repeatable, auditable pipelines. He also designs pragmatic data and GenAI solutions, having rapidly prototyped AI assistants on GCP to augment HR, IT and customer workflows. Comfortable in both delivery and advisory roles, he blends deep technical roots with formal business training (EMBA/PhD studies) to tailor solutions that meet tight timelines and strict security constraints.
