What I'm looking for

I seek a senior engineering role where I can lead cloud architecture and DevOps initiatives, mentor teams, drive cloud-native best practices, and deliver scalable, secure systems while optimizing cost and performance.

I am a Tech Lead and Senior Cloud Architect and DevOps Engineer with 8+ years of experience building backend and frontend systems and leading cloud migrations. I design scalable, high-availability solutions on GCP, AWS, and Azure while driving cost, performance, and security improvements.

I lead cross-functional engineering teams, mentor engineers, and implement GitOps and Terraform-based Infrastructure as Code to streamline deployments and ensure consistency. I have delivered significant performance gains through caching, autoscaling, and observability improvements.

My hands-on technical background spans Spring Boot, TypeScript/NestJS, Angular, React, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD tooling such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and GitLab CI/CD. I also bring experience in ETL with Talend, API management with Kong Gateway, and databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Oracle.

I am passionate about aligning technical strategy with business goals, fostering continuous learning, and researching emerging cloud-native technologies to improve reliability, security, and developer productivity.
