What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior DevOps/cloud role where I can lead infrastructure automation, optimize cost and reliability, mentor teams, and drive CI/CD and IaC best practices in a collaborative, growth-focused environment.

I am a DevOps engineer with 5+ years of practical experience designing and operating cloud infrastructure across Azure and AWS. I focus on Infrastructure as Code, container orchestration, CI/CD automation and scripting to deliver reliable, repeatable deployments.

In leadership and hands-on roles I have architected Terraform and AWS CDK solutions that reduced provisioning time by 40% and cut operational costs by 25%. I automate deployments with Python, Bash and PowerShell while integrating tools like GitHub Actions, CircleCI and Jenkins to increase deployment frequency and reliability.

My work spans multi-region provisioning, Terraform Cloud management, Kubernetes orchestration (ArgoCD, Helm) and observability with Prometheus, Grafana and CloudWatch. I pair technical delivery with documentation, ticket reviews and collaboration in Agile teams to align development and operations.

I hold Azure certifications (AZ-104, AZ-900) and a BSc. I am passionate about continuous learning, optimizing cloud cost and reliability, and building secure, maintainable infrastructure for fast-moving engineering teams.
