Build secure access infrastructure that provides auditable cluster access for operations teams, including automated emergency access procedures and compliance controls
Architect cloud account governance systems covering provisioning, resource management, policy enforcement, and multi-tenant isolation across providers
Design ingress and traffic management patterns that replace legacy components with cloud-native solutions integrated into each provider's ecosystem

Background in BYOC, self-hosted, or customer-managed deployment models where infrastructure runs in environments you don't fully control
