What I'm looking for

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

I am a DevOps Engineer with over 7 years of experience in building, automating, and optimizing mission-critical infrastructure. At Pinnacle Technologies, I successfully reduced deployment time by 40% through the design and implementation of CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitHub Actions. My expertise in AWS migration led to a 35% decrease in cloud costs, showcasing my ability to translate complex technical challenges into scalable solutions.

Throughout my career, I have maintained a 99.9% uptime by automating provisioning and configuration using modern DevOps tools like Ansible and Terraform. I am known for my collaborative approach, bridging the gap between development and operations to deliver resilient, high-performing infrastructure. My skills in monitoring and alerting with Prometheus and Grafana have significantly improved incident detection and response times by 60%, enabling teams to ship faster and smarter.
