Background

About Peter Hancox

I thrive on designing and delivering solutions to challenging problems in the technology space and have done so for a number of years in project management, solution architect, and developer roles throughout Australia, the United States, and Asia Pacific. In my current position as co-owner and consulting architect at Young Minds Australia, I specialise in devops, and development of highly secure and scalable solutions on AWS. These include server infrastructures based on immutables EC2 instances, containers, and serverless technology. I have experience in many of the mainstream AWS services in devops, compute, storage, networking, database, and big data pipelines. Prior to that I was an Associate Partner at Accenture, and then ran my own independent consulting company. At various times I have been a specialist in IBM Mainframes, CICS, WebSphere MQ/Broker, retail banking, and credit cards. As a solution architect I have solved problems and delivered systems in banking, insurance, education, defence, and retail. While at Accenture I was generally responsible for managing small to medium teams of technology and infrastructure professionals as part of multi-year banking and insurance projects. My professional interests include the less mainstream (as yet) AWS services such as machine learning and Alexa; and I enjoy dabling in IoT and have a number of current projects.
