Adebayo Samuel
DevOps Engineer
I pursued further education by earning an MBA from the University of Suffolk, a journey I began in January 2020 during the pandemic and successfully completed in January 2023.
Since September 2024, I have been a Team Mentor for Infrastructure at Bincom Global, an organisation focused on innovative digital solutions. In this role, I oversee a team of eight junior engineers, providing mentorship, sharing knowledge, and ensuring they stay updated with evolving technological trends.
On June 13, 2024, I was contacted by Kathryn Janies, Senior Director of Intelligence Engagement at CompTIA, via LinkedIn. She informed me about an opportunity to contribute to the development of CloudNetX, a new expert-level network architecture certification. To qualify, candidates needed:
A minimum of 10 years of experience in IT, including at least five years in roles such as Network Architect, Systems Architect, Cloud Network Architect, Infrastructure Architect, or Enterprise Architect. Hands-on experience in hybrid cloud environments. Having previously earned the CompTIA Project+ certification in 2010, I felt confident in my ability to contribute. I successfully completed the CompTIA CloudNetX beta exam and received a $100 incentive for my participation.
Following this, Kathryn connected me with Mike Kilgore (Director of Certification Products at CompTIA), Steven Pretlove (UK&I MSP Community Chair at CompTIA), and Cristina Nicolae (UK Cyber Ready Technologist). I was then endorsed into the UK CompTIA Community online forum, where I have been an active participant ever since.
Volunteering & Professional Engagements
In 2011, I volunteered with Grace Project International as an IT professional, providing user support for laptops and computers.
In July 2024, I joined CodeYourFuture (CYF) Manchester Stream as a Training Assistant/Mentor. CYF is a UK-based non-profit that equips individuals from underprivileged backgrounds with essential tech skills to transform their lives. In my role, I assisted in teaching children fundamental programming concepts using Scratch, Python, and HTML.

Why I stand Out
Adebayo Samuel, DevOps Engineer, based in London. As a DevOps Engineer and AWS Solutions Architect, here are three key reasons that make me stand out.
Deep Expertise in Cloud-Native Architectures
I design highly, scalable, fault-tolerant architectures, on AWS using services like ECS, EKS, Lambda, and API Gateway. I ensure cost-optimization with best practices like auto-scaling, serverless computing, and reserved instances to balance performance and budget.
Automation & CI/CD Mastery
I build end-to-end CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, and AWS CodePipeline, to enable fast and reliable deployments. I automate infrastructure provisioning using Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, and Ansible, ensuring immutable infrastructure and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) best practices.
Security & Compliance Focus
I enforce least privilege access using IAM policies , AWS Organizations, and service control policies (SCPs). I integrate security scanning in CI/CD pipelines using tools like Trivy, SonarQube, and AWS Inspector to identify vulnerabilities early.

Education
Oritamefa Baptist Nursery & Primary
I began my educational journey at Oritamefa Baptist Nursery and Primary School in Ibadan, where I developed a strong foundation in academics. For my secondary education, I attended Loyola College, Ibadan, a prestigious institution known for its academic excellence. During my time there, I completed my Junior Secondary School Certificate Examination (JSSCE) and progressed to SS1, where I was placed in SS1 X—the best science class in the school. This class stood out because it was the only one that made Further Mathematics compulsory, attracting some of the brightest students with aspirations in engineering, medicine, and other STEM-related fields. Many of my classmates from that class have since gone on to become successful medical doctors and engineers.
Primary School Education
Airforce Secondary School, Makurdi
After completing SS1, I transferred to Airforce Secondary School in Makurdi to continue my senior secondary education. There, I was part of an exceptionally high-achieving cohort, and in 1997, we recorded one of the best Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (SSCE) results in the school’s history. That same year, I gained admission to the University of Agriculture, Makurdi, to study Agricultural Engineering.
High School Education
University of Agriculture, Makurdi
My years at the university were transformative, allowing me to deepen my understanding of engineering principles and their applications in agriculture. The rigorous academic curriculum, combined with hands-on practical experience, equipped me with the technical knowledge and problem-solving skills necessary for a career in engineering. After years of dedication and hard work, I successfully graduated in 2005, marking a significant milestone in my educational and professional journey.
