What I'm looking for

I am looking for infrastructure, devops engineering roles with companies that have challenging problems to solve. Whether it be building the platform from 0 to 1 or scaling developer productivity from 1 to 100, I am all up for it. I am well-versed in coding in python and roles which utilize open source tools to tackle challenges.

I am a software engineer at heart and have honed my skills towards infrastructure and DevOps. I have experience in handling runtime platforms, security operations and developer productivity and worked in 2 unicorn startups. I love finding the solutions to complex problems and making systems simpler.
