The Practice

Designing technology foundations correctly from day one.

Cloud and enterprise architecture is the practice of designing your technology foundation correctly: cloud platforms, network topology, identity systems, API governance, and the governance structures that keep everything aligned with security, compliance, and business objectives.

Most organisations accumulate years of fragmented cloud decisions that made sense individually but constrain every programme that follows. A well-designed foundation is invisible when it works, and extremely costly to unpick when it does not.

Core Focus Areas
  • AWS & Azure Landing Zone Design
  • Architecture Review Board (ARB) Setup
  • API Standards & Gateway Governance
  • Identity & SSO Federation (Entra / AWS IAM)
Capabilities

Cloud & Enterprise Architecture Workstreams

01 / WORKSTREAM

AWS & Azure Landing Zone Architecture

Multi-account structure, centralized logging, VPC transit gateway topologies, IAM permission boundary design, and security control baselines.

In practice: Designed NTA AWS Landing Zone with AWS Control Tower,Transit Gateway hub, and log archiving across development, staging, and production environments.
02 / WORKSTREAM

Architecture Governance & ARB Setup

Establishing formal Architecture Review Boards, design templates, technology radars, supplier assurance workflows, and architectural decision records (ADRs).

In practice: Building the NTA's enterprise architecture governance model from scratch, gating multi-supplier design decisions before deployment.
03 / WORKSTREAM

API Gateway & Integration Strategy

API lifecycle management, OpenAPI standards, API gateway rate limiting, OAuth 2.0 security, and developer portal architecture.

In practice: Architecting public passenger APIs for national transit, handling millions of daily requests with caching and high-availability gateways.
04 / WORKSTREAM

Identity Federation & Zero Trust

SSO federation connecting Azure Active Directory (Entra ID) to AWS IAM Identity Center, eliminating long-lived credentials.

In practice: Technical lead for corporate identity integration, establishing role-based access across hybrid cloud environments.
