In enterprise systems
Platform & Observability Engineer
I keep the tools
developers depend on
running, visible, and affordable.
Fourteen years operating enterprise developer-tooling and observability stacks. I run the platforms — Datadog, GitHub, Nexus, LaunchDarkly, Docker — across a large multi-company software group, and I'm owner-level admin of its enterprise Claude (AI) deployment. I also do the unglamorous part well: incident response, vendor negotiation, and cutting spend without cutting capability.

What I focus on
What I'm genuinely good at
// 01
Observability
Datadog at specialist depth — 30+ sub-orgs, SSO/SAML, RUM rollout, alerting that signals instead of screaming. Migrated a group off legacy APM onto a modern stack.
// 02
Platform & DevTools
Org admin across 400+ GitHub organizations plus Nexus, LaunchDarkly and Docker. Governance, supply-chain security response, and the database upgrades and incident triage that keep it all up.
// 03
Enterprise AI platform
Owner-level admin of the org's Claude deployment: user administration, configuration, connectors and integrations, across 10+ sub-domains and dozens of child organizations. The rare bit — operating AI at scale, not just using it.
// 04
Vendor & cost
Usage-based-billing optimization, consumption forecasting, and contract negotiation with vendors and procurement. I've taken seven-figure spend down 30% against baseline.
