The Innovation Catalyst
Early adopter and pioneer, from Kubernetes v1.0 to cutting-edge HPC solutions
Currently serving as Lead HPC/Grid Engineer at Millennium Management in London, I lead the development of hybrid cloud HPC platforms that empower portfolio managers and quantitative researchers with on-demand computational resources. My journey has taken me from pioneering cloud infrastructure at GreenQloud in Iceland, through driving Ubuntu's growth in the HPC market at Canonical, to building enterprise-scale platforms for the world's leading financial institutions.
My expertise spans the full technology stack - from InfiniBand and Omni Path fabrics at the hardware layer, through Kubernetes and OpenStack orchestration, to self-service platforms that democratize access to computational power. I've co-authored reference architectures with major OEMs, presented at international conferences including ISC HPC and Supercomputing, and contributed to open-source projects that advance the field.
Beyond technology, I'm passionate about building teams and cultures that deliver exceptional results. Whether reporting to CEOs or collaborating with engineers, I believe in the power of clear communication, strategic thinking, and relentless focus on customer outcomes.
