Summary
Adel Kedjour is a Senior Cloud Engineer based in London with over a decade building secure, scalable systems and a 16+ year background in software engineering and DevSecOps. He’s known as the go-to architect for designing containerised development environments, implementing IaC with Pulumi across multi-region AWS, and embedding security and compliance (ISO 27001/SOC 2) into developer workflows. Adel combines hands-on backend work—refactoring monoliths into DDD microservices and shipping JWT-authenticated systems—with infrastructure automation that cut environment provisioning from a week to minutes. He’s delivered measurable cost, performance and developer-experience improvements, introduced GitOps and GitHub Actions CI/CD at scale, and shipped AI-enabled features using AWS Bedrock and Lambdas. A former co-founder and long-time freelancer, he brings entrepreneurial pragmatism to teams and mentors engineers to adopt test-driven, secure-by-default practices. Colleagues rely on him not just for solving hard technical problems but for translating them into repeatable, auditable processes.
