@abiolafalana
Certified DevOps/Cloud Engineer specializing in Azure and multi-cloud CI/CD automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a certified DevOps and Cloud Engineer with over 8 years of experience designing, automating, and operating cloud-native and hybrid infrastructures. I specialize in Azure and AWS, implementing Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, ARM templates, CloudFormation, and configuration automation using Ansible.
My work focuses on building resilient CI/CD pipelines, container orchestration with AKS/EKS, and secure cloud automations that reduce deployment errors and speed delivery—examples include accelerating release cycles by 40% and cutting cloud waste by 30%.
I bring strong scripting and systems expertise (Python, Bash, PowerShell), deep monitoring and security experience, and a collaborative approach to runbooks, documentation, and cross-team delivery to drive reliable, scalable production systems.
