What I’ve done
- MigrationAn entire engineering organisation moved from Azure DevOps to GitHub Enterprise Cloud. Every repository, delivered end to end as the owner.
- CI/CD re-platformingRe-engineering all pipelines into GitHub Actions: 11 globally distributed environments, deploying the core product of a company valued at USD 250M.
- Identity & access as codeEntra ID service principals defined in YAML, created by IaC, reviewed by pull request. Least privilege replacing broad standing access.
- Enterprise administrationGitHub Enterprise for ~80 engineers: policy, governance, custom roles to contain blast radius, and Copilot rollout.
- AI in the workflowA local code-review agent, and a first-line triage agent for failing pipelines.
