What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a DevSecOps-focused role where I can architect scalable cloud platforms, build GitOps/CI/CD automation, and improve reliability with Kubernetes and observability—while partnering cross-functionally to advance DevOps maturity.

I’m a Senior DevOps Engineer with 9+ years of experience designing, automating, and scaling cloud infrastructures across AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid environments. I focus on building cloud-native architectures that improve availability, security, and cost efficiency.

I’ve led cross-functional teams to implement CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows, improving development cycles by 40% while reducing manual intervention. I build Kubernetes platform capabilities around reliability and deployment agility—using Helm standardization, auto-scaling, and blue/green/canary releases.

DevSecOps is central to how I work: I embed SAST, DAST, container scanning, and policy enforcement directly into pipelines so teams meet security compliance without slowing delivery. I also strengthen secrets and governance with tools like HashiCorp Vault and OPA/Policy as Code, alongside cloud-native security controls.

I drive operational excellence through observability and automation—building monitoring stacks with Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and Splunk to reduce MTTR by 30% and boost system reliability. I deliver Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, CloudFormation, and Bicep, while applying FinOps practices like rightsizing and Spot optimization to keep cloud spend efficient.
