What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth in cloud technologies.

I am a Cloud Platform Consultant with extensive experience in managing secure cloud infrastructures across Azure, OCI, and AWS. My journey in cloud computing has been marked by a proven track record in delivering CI/CD automation, infrastructure-as-code, and platform support for various sectors including finance, education, and aviation. I thrive on solving complex cloud-native architecture challenges in agile environments, ensuring compliance with industry standards.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led multiple cloud migration projects, implementing robust solutions that enhance operational efficiency and security. My role at Version1 has allowed me to work closely with clients to build secure Azure platforms, configure servers using Ansible, and automate infrastructure testing with InSpec. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in Terraform and Azure DevOps to create seamless CI/CD pipelines that drive innovation and improve service delivery.
