Organisation Structure

Techcle — Technology Consultancy

Techcle is Craig’s technology consultancy, the umbrella entity for all professional and personal technology work.

Consulting

Client engagements and government work delivered through Techcle.

EE-HMRC-EIS (Customer Engagement)

Enterprise integration work for HMRC (HM Revenue & Customs). Multiple workstreams:

• HIP (Enterprise Integration Platform) — Mature enterprise API platform on AWS EKS supporting Critical National Infrastructure. 20+ API producer teams across 10+ API categories. Architecture: microservices on EKS with Kong ingress and ALB+WAF. Four platform teams: O11Y+DevEx, Core Infra, Enablement, API Management.

• EDA (Event-Driven Architecture) — Async communication, event mesh, and microservice coordination. Refactored from argocd-eda to eda-mesh.
  • Repo: craigedmunds/eda-mesh — PVC: /workspace/repos/argocd-eda (local folder name needs updating to eda-mesh)
• Integration Hub — Enterprise integration patterns and tooling.
