Hello, my name is

Luca Moretti

I am Cloud Architect

From Austin, Texas. I design secure, scalable cloud platforms on AWS and Azure — landing zones, Kubernetes, and infrastructure as code. I love turning tangled estates into calm, cost-efficient systems.

What I Do

My Services

Cloud Architecture

Landing Zones & Design

Secure, well-architected foundations on AWS and Azure — network, identity, and guardrails done right from day one, ready to scale with you.

Cloud Migration

Move & Modernize

Rehost, replatform, or refactor — I move on-prem estates to the cloud with minimal downtime, then modernize with containers and managed services.

DevOps & Automation

CI/CD & IaC

Terraform modules, automated pipelines, and Kubernetes platforms that let your team ship daily — with observability and rollback built in.

Testimonials

What Customers Say

Portrait of Sarah Lindqvist
Luca took our tangled AWS estate and gave us a landing zone our auditors actually praised. Sixty workloads moved without a minute of customer downtime.

Sarah Lindqvist

CTO, Nimbus Bank

Portrait of David Okafor
Deploy Fridays used to terrify us. After the GitOps rollout we ship ten times a day and sleep through the night. Worth every cent.

David Okafor

Founder, ShopFlow

Portrait of Miguel Santos
The audit report paid for itself in a month — it found idle spend we had walked past for a year, plus two security gaps we fixed the same week.
