Mike has over a decade of industry experience focusing on DevOps, Cloud, and Security. He recently became a Master of Engineering in Business Informatics, and is a big fan of automation which stems from a deep aversion to doing the same thing twice!
Mike has worked in various industries including medical, automotive, and telecommunications. Before joining Verifa, he was Cloud Engineer within Nokia's DevOps team, and System Administrator at Varian, a Siemens Healthineers company. Since 2021 Mike has helped several of Verifa's customers to tighten network security, improve cloud infrastructure, and implement CI processes.
Besides techie stuff, Mike likes to spend time with his family, has a passion for building cars, and tries to get to the gym.
