About Tim
Tim was working in customer support for a cloud service provider before “the cloud” as a concept even existed. Today, he helps Scale Factory customers understand and improve their platforms. He also helps us stay certified, as he’s qualified as an ISO27001 internal auditor and has led most of our internal security audits.
Over 2 decades of experience in IT and cloud means Tim is comfortable getting to grips with customer architectures based on open source technologies and the wider ecosystem that uses them.
Outside of consultancy, Tim is a co-editor for the official Kubernetes blog and is a former technical lead for Kubernetes SIG Docs, the documentation special interest group.
