Summary
Will Dady is a DevSecOps leader based in Melbourne with 13 years’ experience building and securing cloud-native platforms across startups and enterprise teams. He combines hands-on engineering—migrating large-scale AWS accounts, optimizing Kubernetes for Graviton cost savings, and moving dozens of RDS/ElastiCache clusters—with leadership in platform design, CI/CD and developer “golden paths.” Will has repeatedly driven cost and reliability gains (e.g., up to 40% compute savings) while mentoring teams and contributing to internal CDK libraries and cloud best practices. Equally comfortable re-architecting legacy monoliths into event-driven microservices or owning change-approval and solution design, he pairs practical operational rigor with a persistent focus on developer velocity. An AWS APN Ambassador and frequent presenter, he brings a pragmatic, security-first mindset that balances business outcomes with auditable, scalable infrastructure.
