ABOUT PHILIP BOWDITCH

I build motivated, cohesive technology teams with a focus on cloud infrastructure and data integration. With a strong technical grounding built over 19 years in building highly scalable distributed fault tolerant platforms, particularly those in the data integration space. I now apply my experience encouraging teams in applying the same patterns to address business goals.During my career I have worked on several large profile projects for blue chip companies such as a compliance and detection system for a prominent financial organisation, the re-engineering of a large data warehouse for an international telecommunications company, the implementation and integration of a real time electronic point of sale system for a leading high street retailer and a cloud infrastructure capability for a large globally recognised media company.As a technology enthusiast, I have extensive knowledge in a variety of technologies including microservice and serverless architectures with a strong grounding in computer science, software architecture and agile development techniques. My main passion is in automating the entire software delivery stack from infrastructure as code, autoscaling strategies, self healing, continuous deployment and system monitoring.As a manager and facilitator between engineering teams and the business I enjoy the collaborative creation of vision and strategic goals. Identifying and enabling teams to achieve that vision through the constant evaluation of processes, capabilities and responsibilities to ensure they are aligned and setup for success.I am hard working, a keen problem solver, and have a strong focus in providing business value through simplicity, automation and communication.Specialities:TerraformAnsiblePythonAWSDockerKubernetesGolang
