Kim B.
Cloud Architect – Redeploy BuildKim is a Cloud Architect focusing on web applications and performance/security.
Kim began his career in IT over ten years ago as a System Administrator specializing in Linux systems. After a year or so, he transitioned from Sysadmin to DevOps Engineer and began converting on-prem installations to cloud-based (AWS) ones. He was also responsible for architecting an AWS-hosted platform (for the media industry to publish their news). It soon became a popular SaaS product, and the company hosted several major newspaper websites.
In recent years (before joining us), Kim has been moving more on-prem solutions into AWS, educating others, advocating AWS services to developers, designing new cloud services, and creating CI/CD pipelines for all company applications. Kim has been working with AWS for around nine years.
