Platform Engineer / DevSecOps specialist driving secure, scalable cloud infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
I am a Platform Engineer and DevSecOps specialist with hands-on experience designing, building, and operating cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and DigitalOcean. I focus on high availability, automation, and security to deliver reliable production services.
I have led cloud migrations (GKE to EKS), implemented CI/CD pipelines with GitLab/Jenkins/ArgoCD, and automated infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, and CloudFormation. I also manage container platforms using Docker and Kubernetes and apply observability with Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and Sentry.
My security practice includes vulnerability management with Rapid7, Veracode, Sysdig, Wazuh deployments, and implementing RBAC and Vault integrations. I’ve driven improvements in artifact management, backup automation, and compliance standards such as HIPAA.
I mentor junior engineers, manage self-hosted tools (Jira, Confluence, GitLab), and have a track record of delivering production releases, disaster recovery automation, and award-winning project launches.
