Personal summary
As a seasoned Solution Architect with over 15 years of experience in the IT industry, I possess the necessary qualifications and expertise to excel in any position related to cloud migration, solution design, and technical consultancy. I hold an MSc in Cyber Security from the University of South Wales, UK, where I achieved a merit result. Throughout my career, I have served as a core member of the solution design and delivery team at T-Systems, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom AG. In this role, I provided technical consultancy on various customer requirements, delivered standardized hosting solution designs for MS Azure public cloud platform, and designed T-Systems' high-security enabled managed datacenter infrastructure hosting services based on Twin-core DR-enabled Datacenter services portfolios such as Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) on VMware based EXSi and vCloud Platform infrastructure, and Classic Physical Server Infrastructure and Security. I am proficient in designing, implementing, and managing the Datacenter migration framework, Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF), Landing Zone and Well Architecture Frameworks, which are critical to successful private, public, and hybrid cloud migration solutions. Additionally, I have extensive experience in translating business requirements into detailed technical architectures and designs. I possess significant experience as a pre-sales architect, where I have helped prepare technical proposals, developed project scopes and timelines, and conducted presentations to prospective clients. I have also demonstrated my leadership skills by contributing to transition and transformation projects for enterprise customers across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC regions, using agile practices such as Scrum and Kanban to ensure that projects were delivered on time and within budget. I possess extensive experience in creating High-Level Designs (HLDs), Detail Level Designs (DLDs), Low-Level Designs (LDL), Migration frameworks, and Runbooks for onboarding application landscapes and migration services for medium and high-complex requests or projects. Moreover, I have implemented Disaster Recovery solutions for enterprise customers to ensure business continuity and security on Microsoft Azure and Physical Datacenter Infrastructure Solutions. Furthermore, I possess a solid understanding of cloud security and have conducted research on Cloud Migration Security Risks and Benefits for Enterprise Applications as part of my MSc Project. I am a proactive and self-motivated individual with excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and I have gained essential skills in Client Centricity, Client Engagement, and Team management. Overall, with my diverse skill set and extensive experience, I am confident that I can add value to any cloud migration, solution design, and technical consultancy-related project.
