What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a full-time SRE/DevOps role where I can build and operate reliable cloud infrastructure, automate delivery, improve observability, and learn through real production incidents. I'm open to relocation.

I've built and operated AWS infrastructure for production-facing services, including serverless APIs, EKS clusters, Terraform-driven provisioning, monitoring, alerting, and on-call runbooks.

At IPage UMS, I reduced P95 API latency by 40% through Lambda tuning and cold-start reduction, and cut MTTR by 30% with CloudWatch dashboards, alarms, and incident runbooks. At SelfCode Academy, I teach DevOps/SRE and lead a vendor-agnostic multi-cloud track across AWS and Azure.

Through Incident Zero and a high-availability AWS EKS platform, I've recreated real failure modes, automated CI/CD, load-tested services to 50k concurrent users, and used logs and metrics to drive root-cause analysis.
