Nathaniel Harper began his career in April 2014 at Microsoft as an Infrastructure Consultant, leading Hyper‑V and System Center virtualization and private‑cloud projects. He authored security hardening guides, operational runbooks for Windows Server, and advised global clients on disaster‑recovery strategies. In July 2018, he joined AWS as a Cloud Solutions Engineer, designing cost‑effective, resilient EC2, S3, VPC, and IAM architectures, delivering workshops, and producing white papers and reference architectures. Since January 2025, as Senior Technical Writer & IT Consultant at Vinchin, he crafts user guides, API documentation, deployment playbooks, and blog posts on virtualization, backup/recovery, and network security, translating new feature requirements into clear, customer‑focused materials that enhance adoption and drive strategic growth.
