Omschrijving

AWS Cloud Network Specialist | Hybrid & Multi-Cloud Connectivity Expert | Terraform IaC

I design, build, and optimize secure, scalable, and low-latency cloud network architectures — with deep expertise in complex hybrid and multi-account AWS environments.

What I deliver:

End-to-end hybrid connectivity: Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, PrivateLink, VPC Endpoints

Advanced Route 53 setups (private/public zones, resolvers, split-view DNS)

Centralized multi-account/multi-region networking, egress, inspection, and routing

High-availability, low-latency, and multicast designs

Full Infrastructure as Code with Terraform for repeatable, version-controlled deployments

With 5+ years hands-on experience, I help organizations reduce operational risk, cut costs, and accelerate migrations. I recently moved into full-time contracting to bring focused, high-impact networking expertise to short- and medium-term projects.

Available for fully remote or hybrid contracts across Europe and the UK.

Let’s discuss your cloud networking challenges — I can usually start within 1-2 weeks.
