Cloud Engineer, taking it slow and doing it right
Cloud infrastructure, minus the stress.
I build Terraform-based cloud systems, lean on AI where it helps, and genuinely enjoy building web apps for clients.
Cloud Engineer, taking it slow and doing it right
I build Terraform-based cloud systems, lean on AI where it helps, and genuinely enjoy building web apps for clients.
I'm a cloud engineer who believes good infrastructure should feel invisible. By day, I build Terraform-managed systems and CI/CD pipelines for enterprise teams, with an AI assist where it earns its keep. By choice, I build web applications for clients, one careful decision at a time.
Outside of work: slow mornings, trail running, and a Raspberry Pi cluster I tend to more than is strictly reasonable.
9 yrs in infrastructure
40+ systems migrated
99.98% avg uptime
Six areas I work in every week, not just on a resume.
AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, provisioned and versioned with Terraform and Pulumi so nothing lives only in someone's head.
AI-assisted IaC review and runbooks that shrink enterprise tasks down to an afternoon.
GitHub Actions and GitLab CI pipelines built around calm, predictable releases.
Docker and Kubernetes, shipped through the same steady pipelines.
Vue 3, React, and Node.js, building client-facing web applications end to end, then deploying them with the same care as the infrastructure work.
Enterprise infrastructure is the day job. Building web applications for clients, start to finish, is what I'd do even if nobody asked. Same steady process, just a different kind of ship day.
2022 – Present
Terraform-managed cloud infrastructure and CI/CD delivery for healthcare, logistics, and SaaS clients, increasingly paired with AI-assisted automation and the occasional client web app.
2019 – 2022
Rebuilt the on-prem patient records platform as Terraform-managed AWS infrastructure, then automated most of the change review. Cut unplanned downtime by 40 percent.
2016 – 2019
Replaced manual network changes with version-controlled configuration across 12 warehouse sites, and shipped the company's first CI/CD pipeline.
2014 – 2016
Where it started, and where I learned most outages trace back to an undocumented change.
Meridian Health Systems
Moved a decade of on-prem patient infrastructure to AWS in six months, entirely as version-controlled Terraform, ahead of a HIPAA audit, with zero data loss and 40 percent less downtime.
Enterprise client, financial services
Paired existing runbooks with an AI-assisted triage layer, cutting time-to-remediation on routine incidents.
Independent client, e-commerce
Designed, built, and deployed a Vue storefront through a CI/CD pipeline that now ships updates same-day.
"Craig found single points of failure our own team had missed for years. The migration finished early and nothing broke."
