ABOUT MAGNO WEST

I am a seasoned DevOps engineer with 15+ years of systems analysis and IT experience in the technology and manufacturing sectors. Recognised for demonstrating a natural aptitude for driving the continuous improvement of key applications, as well as for administering and optimising cloud infrastructure, I have a verifiable history of contributing directly to company growth and expansion throughout my career. As such, I have consistently exceeded budgetary and performance goals, and I am adept at achieving maximum operational output with minimal resource expenditure. Professional focal points include CI/CD pipelines, systems administration, performance monitoring, workflow optimisation, and scripting. Delivering superior administration on the latter areas of expertise requires utilisation of effective communication and cross-functional collaboration skills, as well as the business acumen, problem-solving aptitude, and project/resource management abilities to support efficiency and maximise returns.In my current position, I am a Software Operations Engineer with Gerson Lehrman Group. Partnering closely with the Product team, I sustain and improve the systems which facilitate the rapid, iterative improvement of company software. This involves extensive responsibility for cloud infrastructure, and I focus primarily on AWS and Azure systems while leveraging Terraform and Cloud Formation. In addition, I have modernised and ported 100+ applications to leading-edge AWS products.Colleagues describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth technical and communication expert who can be relied on to offer superior solutions that deliver profitable results on time and under budget.
