Kief Morris (he/him) is the author of the O’Reilly book Infrastructure as Code, and is the Global Community of Practice Lead for Infrastructure Engineering at Thoughtworks. He works with clients and project teams around the world to explore, shape, and share better ways of working with cloud and infrastructure architecture.

Kief started out as a developer and systems administrator in the dot-com boom days, then worked with a series of digital scaleups applying infrastructure automation before it was a thing. He joined Thoughtworks in 2010 as the wider industry was discovering Infrastructure as Code, DevOps, and Cloud, which gave him the opportunity to bring what he had learned in the previous fifteen years to enterprise clients in many industries and many countries.
He wrote the book Infrastructure as Code (third edition underway) to share these ideas with a wider audience, which has given him a platform to meet and learn from an ever-growing variety of people and organizations.
