About
I've been working with Azure, Entra and M365 since 2011. Spent 15 years across Norwegian systems integrators and global consultancies before moving to a cloud platform vendor.
What I Work On
Azure Landing Zones
End-to-end ALZ Corp deployments with Terraform and Bicep. 135+ automated checklist validations via Azure Resource Graph. Security and compliance built in from day one, not bolted on.

AKS Automatic clusters with ALZ Corp networking. BYO VNet, Application Gateway for Containers, NGINX, Istio with multiple ingress and egress patterns documented with full Terraform parity.
