What I'm looking for

Seeking a fully remote Senior DevOps/Platform role with real ownership of infrastructure, from IaC to releases and reliability. Interested in large-scale AWS and Kubernetes environments, ideally compliance-driven, and teams that value automation, cost efficiency and practical AI in ops. I want room to mentor and a path toward technical leadership.

I’m a Senior DevOps / Platform Engineer with 5 years of experience running AWS infrastructure and CI/CD for large, multi-region fleets, specializing in Terraform, Kubernetes, Consul and regulated environments.

At Cisco, I operate a Consul service mesh across 60 datacenters and 3 fleets, including FedRAMP Moderate and High environments. I automated provisioning of 40 ECS and EKS clusters through IaC, cut compute costs by 40% on one fleet ($26K/year), and shipped 10+ releases with zero failures. I also apply AI to operations: Claude Code skills that cut MTTR by 20%, AI code review that halved open security findings, and a tenant chatbot that reduced support tickets by 30%.

Previously at SoftServe, I brought a 5,000-VM fleet fully under Terraform, cut deployment time by 25%, led SOC 2 compliance work, and resolved around 200 CVEs. I’ve mentored 10+ engineers, with 9 of 10 interns hired full-time.

I hold five certifications, including AWS DevOps Professional, Terraform Professional and CKA. I’m looking for remote senior platform or DevOps roles with ownership over large-scale, cloud-native or compliance-driven infrastructure, and room to grow toward technical leadership.
