Deshawn Williams

I am a Senior Cloud Engineer with over eight years of experience designing, implementing, and securing AWS environments across commercial and GovCloud/ITAR regions.

I translate government requirements, SOWs, and security controls into production-ready architectures and Infrastructure as Code, delivering reusable CloudFormation and CDK templates that reduce drift and standardize provisioning.

I have coordinated multi-team launches, and owned on-call incident response for mission-critical services while implementing observability, CI/CD pipelines, and automation to speed detection and remediation.

I drive compliance-focused operational practices (FedRAMP, FISMA, ITAR), produce auditable architecture documentation, and mentor engineers on AWS best practices to maintain secure, scalable, and well-documented systems.
