27 November 2020

Callibrity allows me to enjoy a developer oriented environment that values client satisfaction. I work with clients that have decided to move their systems into the public cloud. I have experience on the Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services. I know that your enterprise needs solutions that can scale over time, and that you need to do this for less than building your own solution.
