About Me
Who am I?
I am a hands-on SRE & DevOps Leader with over 20 years of experience managing complex, high-scale enterprise infrastructure within the fast-paced financial technology sector.
Over the course of my career, I have specialized in bridging the gap between rapid software development and stable, secure, highly automated operations
.
My leadership approach focuses on empowering global engineering teams, driving cultural shifts toward agile DevOps models, and executing massive infrastructure modernisations that directly protect revenue and improve delivery velocity.

Beyond the Architecture
When I'm not scaling platform stability, here is where you'll find me.
While it’s important to understand what my career path looks like, I thought it might be nice to share a bit about my life outside of work.
I’m a husband, father to two daughters, and dog-dad to a Cocker Spaniel—who's a boy, just to even the numbers up a little.
I’ve always had a deep love for the outdoors and have played sports all my life, mostly rugby and football.
I will never turn down a challenge to learn something new; recently, my wife and I have taken up squash. When I'm not on the court or watching a match, you'll usually find me hiking, camping, gaming or spending time working in my garden.
As a keen DIY "expert" with a wife who is always looking for the next home improvement project, I love getting hands-on in my woodworking workshop. Appropriately named "Chris' Wood Workshop," I guess I was always destined to find a passion there.
