Ahmed Al-Alousi's Linkedin Analytics

Technology executive who's spent 25+ years making complex systems actually work. Currently keeping Fortune 500 clients happy (£75M+ portfolios) as Director - Cloud Architecture at Kyndryl. Previously untangled government IT at the Crown Prosecution Service, Cabinet Office, and Nuclear Decommissioning Authority - yes, the nuclear bit was as intense as it sounds. What I actually do: Transform legacy systems that everyone's afraid to touch. Build teams that deliver. Navigate the politics. Make the technology work for humans, not the other way around. Still not afraid to dive into code when it breaks at 3am and the genius who built it left last week with zero documentation. The numbers that matter: - £50M+ budgets managed without drama - Classified systems secured (details protected under Official Secrets Act) - Multi-year transformations delivered on time Background: Vodafone, O2, government, critical infrastructure. If it's complex, regulated, and mission-critical, I've probably worked on it. I do AI that handles classified data, ML that actually ships to production, and optimisation algorithms that save millions. Yes, I've got the PhDs to prove I know the theory (Computer Science, Manchester 2010; Computer Engineering, London 2024), but more importantly, I've got the scars from making it work in practice. All while nurturing the humans that build it all and helping teams exceed their potential. Real implementation, not innovation theatre; so if your biggest IT challenge is ransomware and password leaks, then I'm probably not your guy. Exploring C-suite opportunities where technology drives real business transformation.
