What I'm looking for

I'm seeking senior DevOps/cloud roles where I can design secure, scalable infrastructure, lead teams, implement IaC and CI/CD, and drive cloud migrations—remote or hybrid—within organizations that value reliability, security, and technical mentorship.

I am a results-driven Senior System Administrator and DevOps engineer with over 15 years of experience designing, deploying, and maintaining secure, scalable hybrid and cloud infrastructures (AWS, Azure, VMware). I have led cloud migrations, implemented IaC with Terraform and Ansible, containerized services with Docker, and established CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to improve deployment speed and reliability.

I mentor junior engineers, manage IT teams, and act as a technical escalation point while delivering measurable outcomes such as 99.9% uptime and a 60% faster provisioning cadence. I regularly consult for international clients, focusing on secure, cost-effective solutions and operational excellence.
