Hello, 世界! I’m Bill Glover. I work at Tanzu by Broadcom as a Solutions Architect / Systems Engineer. I help teams and organisations run developer platforms and build cloud native applications. I enjoy photography and have re-discovered the joy of analogue. See what I’m up to now, find out what tools I use, send me a message on Mastadon, find me on LinkedIn or better yet, drop me an email. This site is my home on the internet.
