SRE and DevOps engineer specializing in AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes, and CI/CD reliability.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) / DevOps Engineer with 5 years of experience managing production AWS infrastructure and keeping services stable at scale. I reduced AWS infrastructure cost by $216K annually through EC2 rightsizing and Reserved Instance optimization, while maintaining 99.9% service availability across 200+ production incidents on a global streaming platform.
I build Terraform-based infrastructure automation, run Kubernetes workloads on EKS, and manage CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitLab CI/CD. I focus on proactive observability with Datadog/Grafana and fast incident response—investigating issues with dashboards, logs, and monitoring, and strengthening teams through runbooks, root cause analysis, and knowledge transfer.
