Hi, I'm Lucien Lin

Platform Engineer in London | Azure • .NET • Cloud Systems


About Me

Platform Engineer focused on building scalable, reliable, and cost-efficient systems in Azure.

Background in design and fashion, now working across backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, and DevOps. I enjoy turning complex operational problems into simple, automated solutions.


Current Focus

  • Cloud-native architecture on Azure
  • CI/CD and infrastructure automation (GitLab / Azure DevOps / Terraform)
  • Distributed systems (messaging, caching, background processing)
  • Performance optimisation and cost reduction
  • Applying AI to real-world engineering problems

Tech Stack

Backend & Languages C# / .NET (6–8), ASP.NET Core, Python

Cloud & DevOps Azure (Functions, Service Bus, Event Grid, Cosmos DB, App Service) Terraform, GitLab CI/CD, Azure DevOps

Architecture & Data Redis, event-driven systems, microservices

Observability & Security Application Insights, Log Analytics (KQL), Fortify, Nexus IQ


Selected Work

  • Built internal platform services to orchestrate and monitor virtual environments
  • Migrated infrastructure from scripts to Terraform
  • Designed Redis-based global holiday caching system (geo-aware)
  • Improved CI/CD pipelines to increase reliability and reduce build friction
  • Working on predictive models for system usage patterns

Side Projects

  • AI-powered language learning tool (image → vocabulary → spaced learning)
  • Fashion & brand intelligence app (style generation based on brand DNA)

How I Work

  • Prefer simple and maintainable solutions
  • Focus on measurable impact (cost, performance, reliability)
  • Strong debugging mindset — understand root cause, not just fix
  • Comfortable across backend, infrastructure, and pipelines
