Built dozens of production applications using Go.

Specialise in Docker and Kubernetes deployment of Go binaries, including compilation, build scripts and continuous integration.

Have been working with AWS pretty much from day one.

Currently in production with 50+ EC2 Instances, ElasticSearch, Elasticache, ECS,, Labbda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, RDS Aurora and Postgresql, SDB, IAM, S3, Cloudfront, Route53, SES, SQS, SNS and probably a few more!

I am an active contributor to the Hyperledger project and have contributed code, expertise and testing resources.

Currently running a live application on v1.0.1 running on AWS cutting over 2,000 blocks per hour.

Have deployed Fabric on Kubernetes and also run custom deployments on naked Ec2 Images.

Running production clusters on IBM and on AWS.

Experienced in Continuous Integration and automated deployment scripts to update Kubernetes clusters.

Have built and currently run dozens of Go microservices on AWS Lambda.  I use a NodeJS wraper to efficiently run go binaries on Lambda, and have built a CI model for auto testing and deployment to Lambda and API Gateway.

All of our current application front-ends are build on Angular and deployed via AWS Cloudfront, backed by S3.

Ask me about AWS Configuration (redirects for pretty links, Integrated SSL), and Continuous Integration via AWS CLI and Git hooks.

Efficient local build environments utilising the full power of Gulp and BrowserSync accelerate the development lead-time for mobile-first projects.

I have been programming in PHP since I can remember.  Although I no longer use for new projects, I maintain dozens of legacy projects and recently migrated all to PHP7.

Ask about deployment and nginx optimisation.

I have been working with Debian from the very beginning.  Our production workloads all run on Debian 8 or 9.  For docker then my preference is to start with the slim version of debian.
