About John Rouchotas

I am currently operating as a Principal Cloud Architect at Blue Mantis. In this role I have been given the opportunity to expand my skills on all major cloud computing platforms, and partake in the creation of sophisticated and very customized cloud solutions. This allows me to engage with and specialize in cloud computing using cutting edge technology at the forefront of innovation. Additionally, I am able to work very closely with key customers to accomplish high-priority, complex tasks, and drive change and adoption at scale in an automated and secure fashion. I am always eager to further my experience in fresh and innovative technologies. I always enjoy my profession, and find the most rewarding part to be tackling the new challenges, truly problem solving and exercising my mind to achieve a positive outcome. My current specialized Architecture experience includes the platforms Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure, leveraging Jenkins, Bamboo, Puppet, Ansible, Git, Terraform and Python, as well as the vast array of cloud native services (ex. AWS Cloudformation, Azure Bicep) offered by each cloud provider to create highly automated, scalable, highly redundant stacks following cloud security practices published by trustworthy sources to ensure the safety of PII data. I possess extensive experience designing, architecting, and deploying enterprise-grade Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure workloads end-to-end, in a highly-automated, scalable fashion, leveraging infrastructure-as-code, paired with deployment orchestrators and configuration management with a focus on security, scalability and auditability.
