Steven Burgess

I am a versatile Senior Software Engineer with over 8 years of experience, specializing in designing, developing, and managing cloud-based infrastructure, with a deep focus on Amazon Web Services (AWS). I have a strong track record of delivering secure, scalable, and efficient solutions that address complex business needs. My technical expertise spans serverless architectures, microservices, containerization with Kubernetes and Docker, application security, and infrastructure as code (IaC) using tools like Terraform and CloudFormation.

I am highly skilled at leveraging AWS services such as Lambda, Boto3, AWS CDK, and API Gateway to architect, develop, and optimize applications that drive business success. With extensive experience in DevOps, I excel at creating and implementing CI/CD pipelines and automating infrastructure, allowing organizations to deploy and scale applications rapidly and efficiently. I also bring proficiency in multiple programming languages, including Node.js, Python, TypeScript, and Golang, which I use to build high-quality, reliable code for both backend and frontend systems.

Having led efforts in modernizing legacy systems into cloud-native, microservice-based architectures, I have consistently improved operational efficiency, reduced costs, and increased scalability for the projects I work on. My strong understanding of security best practices ensures that all applications are both secure and resilient.

I am looking to bring my extensive cloud and software engineering expertise to dynamic projects where I can contribute to building innovative, scalable solutions. I am passionate about solving complex technical challenges and driving tangible business outcomes through the intelligent use of technology. If you need a cloud expert who can seamlessly integrate development and operations with a focus on scalability and security, I am ready to help you achieve your goals.
