Max Teiger

Cloud Platform Architect · Lead DevSecOps

I design, migrate and automate critical cloud infrastructures for companies like LVMH, Disney and Thales. I help CIOs and IT departments build secure, resilient and highly automated platforms: developers ship faster while cloud costs stay under control.

Experience

GCP Architect

EPEX SPOT
Oct 2026 – Present
  • Platform modernisation: evolving a lift-and-shift GCP foundation (landing zone, CI/CD, governance) into a cloud-native platform for application modernisation and serverless adoption.
  • Roadmap & alignment: owning the platform roadmap and running architecture workshops with platform engineers, IT delivery product units, enterprise architecture and security, each ending in a named decision and owner, tracked as ADRs.
  • Security & compliance by design for a regulated European power exchange (NIS2, NCCS, DORA, ISO 27001 target): org policies, workload identity, CMEK, policy-as-code.
  • Platform enablement: internal developer platform patterns and reference architectures that give product teams self-service, secure-by-default building blocks.

Cloud & DevSecOps Architect

Christian Dior Couture · LVMH
Jan 2025 – Oct 2026
  • Multi-cloud design and governance: hub-and-spoke, microservices and event-driven architectures on GCP, Azure and Alibaba Cloud, built for global high availability (DRP, RTO/RPO).
  • Zero Trust security: security standards, end-to-end encryption and SSO identity management (SAML, OAuth, Entra ID).
  • Kubernetes ecosystems on GKE and AKS, with automated deployments.
  • FinOps & GreenOps: cost management processes to optimise cloud billing at scale.
  • Network (VPC, peering, firewalls, load balancing) and least-privilege IAM for compliant, secure applications.
