What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

I am a results-driven DevOps Engineer with over 7 years of experience in cloud infrastructure management, CI/CD pipeline orchestration, and system automation. My expertise lies in Kubernetes administration, AWS and Azure cloud services, and leveraging cutting-edge technologies to optimize deployments and enhance system reliability. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with cross-functional teams to implement best practices across the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

At IMAX, I led the migration of on-premises infrastructure to cloud platforms, achieving a 30% reduction in operational costs. I developed Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, designed and managed application deployments in Kubernetes clusters, and implemented monitoring systems that reduced Mean Time To Resolution (MTTR) by 40%. My commitment to optimizing CI/CD pipelines has resulted in a 60% decrease in deployment times and a 50% increase in release frequency, showcasing my ability to drive efficiency and reliability in complex environments.
