Karl Hepworth

Platform Engineer

Based in Canberra, Australia, Karl's open source journey began as a government content editor, where he first encountered Drupal and discovered a passion for development. Starting as a Drupal 7 developer creating tailored solutions, Karl later shifted his focus to optimizing developer tools, with a particular interest in Ansible and remote workflows.


As Kubernetes gained traction in Australia’s government Drupal hosting space, Karl transitioned to platform management. His standout achievement was rewriting amazee.io’s Pygmy project, a transformative contribution that redefined the tool. Today, Karl specializes in Containers, Kubernetes, and Cloud Native software at amazee.io, where he continues to innovate and advance platform solutions.
