@davidakinsanya
I build secure cloud infrastructure and resolve IT support, network, and identity access issues.
What I'm looking for
I've designed and maintained Azure and AWS infrastructure at Hydeas Technologies, configuring virtual machines, storage, virtual networks, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft 365, and access controls. I troubleshoot cloud, networking, and infrastructure issues while documenting solutions that improve reliability and knowledge sharing.
Previously, I delivered first- and second-line support at Inspirive Technologies and conducted IT governance, risk, and compliance analysis for the National Assembly. I'm certified in Azure administration and security, with hands-on projects in Nagios, Grafana, vulnerability assessment, cloud migration risk, and secure identity management.
