I build standardized cloud platforms and reliable Kubernetes delivery systems across Azure, AWS, and GCP.
What I'm looking for
At FMC Corporation, I architect and standardize Azure infrastructure for multi-environment Kubernetes, container, data, and application workloads. I build reusable Terraform foundations and lead CI/CD and GitOps strategy with Jenkins JCasC, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, and Terraform.
Previously at Sporttrade, I owned reliability and automation across AWS and GCP production platforms, improving observability, remediation, security controls, and cloud cost management. I also bring hands-on security, IT platform, Linux, scripting, and independent small-business technology consulting experience.
