Johannes "Lockhead" Koch

DevOps Enthusiast & Builder

AWS DevTools Hero
AWS Community Builder

I am Johannes “Lockhead” Koch

A DevOps enthusiasts and a builder by heart.

I have been honoured with the title of an AWS DevTools Hero since June 2023!

I was an AWS Community Builder from Q1/2022 until June 2023 - see the full map of builders here.

I love building things using Typescript, Angular, Java- or anything required to deliver and end-to-end solution.

I believe in full CI/CD automation and everything required to run the solution being part of the infrastructure as code - here I’ve learned to love AWS CDK.

I lead the AWS UG Bergstrasse and I am a member of the AWS DACH Community Förderverein.
