What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, scalable cloud platforms where I can improve reliability through Kubernetes, AWS, GitOps, automation, observability, and cross-functional collaboration.

I've led Kubernetes platform design and operations for Kaizen Deliverables' e-commerce client, building multi-tenant environments with RBAC, namespace isolation, resource quotas, Helm, and ArgoCD GitOps workflows.

I operate and scale AWS infrastructure with Terraform and Terragrunt, automate CI/CD with GitHub Actions, and reduce manual deployment intervention. My automation improved release workflows by 40% and helped enhance system availability by 15% through incident response, root cause analysis, and post-incident improvements.

Previously at AIS Healthcare, I supported secure healthcare platforms through Kubernetes orchestration, AWS provisioning, observability, secrets management, IAM enforcement, and automated compliance checks. I improved release cadence and reduced deployment failures by 30%.

I started at American Airlines building full-stack features for Flight Attendant Experience applications, collaborating on scalable APIs, frontend components, reliability improvements, and deployment automation. I also mentor engineers in Kubernetes, GitOps, and cloud infrastructure practices.
