I help teams streamline lab IT and migrate to scalable cloud infrastructure.

I help teams streamline lab IT and migrate to scalable cloud infrastructure.

Count on me to modernize legacy systems, automate workflows, and build secure environments that grow with your business.

After 10+ years in lab IT, I now help teams modernize legacy systems and move to the cloud with confidence. Whether it’s stabilizing on-prem environments or launching secure AWS infrastructure, I bridge the gap between old-school reliability and cloud-native speed.

Three ways I can help your team right now:

🧪 Modernize legacy lab systems

Audit and refactor on-prem lab IT infrastructure—migrate from aging servers to scalable, compliant cloud services.

Deliverables: Migration roadmap + AWS setup + validation templates

Fixed price or hourly

🚀 Build a secure AWS environment from scratch

Design and deploy cloud infrastructure using Terraform, IAM, EC2, S3, and serverless tools—backed by real-world GxP awareness.

Deliverables: Infrastructure as code repo + CI/CD pipeline + cost optimization tips

🔧 Automate compliance workflows

Replace clunky manual processes with scripts, cloud-native automations, and scheduled backups for instrument data, logs, and documentation.

Deliverables: Automation scripts + step-by-step documentation + AWS scheduler setup

What I bring to every build, from lab systems to the cloud:

What I bring to every build, from lab systems to the cloud:

🧑‍🔬 Modernize legacy systems with stability and scale

  • Stabilize Legacy Infrastructure – Diagnose and upgrade aging lab systems with minimal disruption.

  • Bridge On-Prem to Cloud – Build hybrid architectures that connect old systems to modern AWS services.

  • Improve System Uptime – Identify and resolve infrastructure pain points before they snowball.

  • Document Everything – SOPs, validation protocols, and clear system configs—compliance-ready, always.

⚡ Optimize performance and automate at scale

  • Streamline Cloud Resources – Optimize AWS usage for cost, speed, and resilience using Terraform and native tools.

  • Automate the Boring Stuff – From backups to deployment, free your team to focus on real problems.

  • Build Secure Infrastructure – Architect with IAM, encryption, and least-privilege from day one.

  • Integrate Smart APIs – Design cloud-native tools that talk seamlessly to lab instruments or internal dashboards.

📉 Reduce downtime and align tech with business

  • Mitigate Deployment Risks – Clean pipelines, test coverage, and rollback plans keep your ops running smooth.

  • Align Infra with Roadmaps – Your systems should grow with the team, not bottleneck it.

  • Champion Dev + Ops Culture – I've worked cross-functionally for years—tech and process go hand in hand.

🔐 Keep releases compliant and future-proof

  • Build for GxP & Beyond – Everything I deploy considers audit trails, traceability, and validation hooks.

  • Adapt with Confidence – Whether it's a small tweak or a big migration, I set teams up for controlled change.

I’ll generate results like these:

🔻 Reduced manual processes by 90%

Automated lab instrument backups, user provisioning, and reporting workflows—freeing teams from tedious, error-prone tasks.

⚡ Cut downtime and boosted deployment speed

Helped migrate legacy lab systems to AWS-backed infrastructure, reducing deployment time from hours to minutes.

📉 Slashed system errors by 60%

Introduced SOPs, monitoring scripts, and structured validation protocols that reduced post-release bugs in regulated environments.

📈 Increased scalability 3X

Designed cloud-native solutions with autoscaling and cost-aware architectures, improving performance across multiple lab teams.

You’ll be glad I’m on your team

“Brandon brought instant value to our team. His background in lab systems meant he could troubleshoot issues no one else could touch, and now he’s pairing that knowledge with cloud automation. He’s sharp, dependable, and delivers clean, documented solutions — exactly what you want in a tech lead.”

Teams bring me in when...


Their legacy lab systems are crawling or barely holding together


They need infrastructure expertise but don’t want a bloated IT team


Their cloud journey is stalled by outdated processes


They want automation, compliance, and scale—without the duct tape
