What I'm looking for

I seek cloud/DevOps roles where I can design scalable AWS architectures, automate infrastructure with Terraform and CI/CD, improve observability, and grow into senior/architect responsibilities within a collaborative, security-conscious team.

I am an AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate with hands-on experience designing and deploying secure, highly available cloud architectures using Terraform, GitLab CI/CD, Docker, and native AWS services. I build multi-tier systems, containerized applications, and automated pipelines focused on reliability and scalability.

In my current role as a Cloud Engineer I have implemented multi-AZ Terraform modules, deployed applications on ECS, configured HAProxy and OpenVPN for secure access, and integrated CloudWatch and CheckMK for centralized monitoring and alerting. I also deploy serverless workflows with AWS Lambda and manage secrets with AWS Secrets Manager.

I continuously expand my platform skills through practical labs—currently completing the Kubernetes CKA course—and I combine networking fundamentals with DevOps practices to improve observability, uptime, and operational automation.
