Hi, I'm Brenden

I'm a Cloud and DevSecOps Engineer based in Brisbane, Australia.

I've built and scaled cloud solutions using AWS's comprehensive suite of services, specialising in infrastructure as code with Terraform/OpenTofu, CloudFormation, and AWS CDK. My expertise extends to serverless architectures, AI integration, and implementing robust DevSecOps practices that enhance security and automation.

As DevSecOps Lead at Australian Payments Plus, I architect and implement security-enhanced DevOps and cloud solutions for Australia's essential payment platforms - Beem, BPAY, and Eftpos. My role combines cloud architecture, site reliability engineering (SRE), and AI innovation to deliver secure, automated, and resilient payment systems that serve millions of Australians.

Beyond the technical work, I'm passionate about leading and mentoring my team, helping them grow their skills and navigate the evolving landscape of cloud-native architectures, security automation, SRE principles, observability, and modern DevOps practices.
