I build reliable, secure AWS and Kubernetes platforms with Terraform, observability, and automated delivery.
What I'm looking for
At NimbusPost, I lead multi-account AWS governance and a 12+ microservice EKS platform across four environments. I led a zero-downtime migration of a production credit platform to a dedicated, network-isolated VPC and EKS environment.
Previously at Ticketmaster, I increased deployment frequency by 40%, improved uptime by 25%, and reduced downtime by 15% through CI/CD automation and Grafana and Prometheus monitoring. I build reproducible infrastructure with Terraform, strengthen security baselines, and help teams ship reliably.
