Cloud & DevOps engineer designing AWS/Kubernetes platforms with automation and reliability.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Cloud & DevOps Engineer with 4+ years of experience designing, automating, and operating cloud-native infrastructure on AWS. I bring hands-on expertise in Kubernetes (EKS), Terraform, GitOps, CI/CD, Linux, and observability for highly available production workloads.
I’ve helped teams move faster and operate more reliably by reducing deployment times by 80%, improving infrastructure reliability, and optimizing cloud costs through automation and Infrastructure as Code. I’ve also migrated monoliths to Kubernetes-based microservices and rebuilt CI/CD workflows with AWS services and GitHub-based automation.
I’m equally focused on GenAI and operational excellence, supporting solutions built on Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, Knowledge Bases, and RAG architectures for enterprise customers. I lead technical troubleshooting across Bedrock and MCP integrations, and I mentor 100+ engineers through structured AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform training.
