What I'm looking for

Looking for a challenging role that utilizes my skills and experience in DevOps engineering to deliver high-performance systems and solutions.

As a seasoned DevOps Engineer with over 3 years of experience, I have a proven track record of designing and implementing scalable, efficient cloud-native architectures. My expertise lies in leveraging cutting-edge technologies like AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, and Python to deliver high-performance systems. I am skilled in containerization, orchestration, and microservices architecture.

Throughout my career, I have worked with various companies, including ROVA, Analogue Shift, and Darey.IO, where I have successfully implemented CI/CD pipelines, optimized microservice deployments, and developed modular approaches to Terraform infrastructure provisioning. I have also worked on multiple projects, including developing RESTful APIs, integrating payment gateways, and deploying WordPress servers on EC2 instances.

I am passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest technologies and trends in the industry. I am committed to delivering high-quality solutions that meet the needs of my clients and exceed their expectations.
