About Me

I’m Sulman Malik — a Senior Infrastructure & Cloud Engineer based in London, with 5+ years of experience designing hybrid environments, automating deployments, and leading Azure/AWS projects across sectors.

I specialize in designing and delivering scalable cloud architectures across Azure and AWS, with a strong emphasis on security, performance, and operational resilience. My experience spans hybrid infrastructure, AVD environments, and SQL-based deployments, alongside implementing enterprise-grade solutions such as Azure Lighthouse for tenant management, Defender and Sentinel for security hardening, and enterprise web applications.

While I’ve contributed to DevOps workflows—like GitHub environment setup—my core focus remains architecting robust systems that align with business objectives and technical best practices.

Outside of tech, I’m passionate about cars, games, Marvel and DC comics. I also consult independently and am growing a property venture alongside my cloud career.
