Umar Ahmad

Cloud Engineer

What do you do as a Cloud Engineer?

– In a nutshell, I solve technical challenges using cloud services. But it’s more than just fixing things — it's about teaching, leading, and building technical confidence within organizations.

  • “It's like managing a library. You need to meticulously sort your data into sets classified by category, ownership, and sensitivity. Once that's done, much of it can be automated.”

    Umar Ahmad

    Cloud Engineer, Redeploy

What excites you most about your role?

– It’s the puzzle-solving. Cloud Engineers are like plumbers for cloud systems. Whether it's configuring services or building automation, the goal is to keep everything flowing. When it works, it's a great feeling.

Any technology you're passionate about?

Kubernetes and microservices. It’s a modern way to solve problems in the cloud. Instead of one big, monolithic application, you break it down into smaller, independent parts.

What are the benefits of Kubernetes and microservices?

It doesn’t waste resources — it uses only what’s needed to keep things running. For businesses, that means fewer headaches, lower costs, and a system that heals itself.

To end it all, what’s your best cloud engineering advice to organizations?

Don't over-engineer. Remove rather than add and start small. Also, don’t force old methodologies into microservices—you must flip it and rethink everything from scratch.
