I build reliable cloud platforms, Kafka pipelines, and DevOps automation for enterprise systems.

United States
Message

At Salesforce, I build automation and real-time data systems that support reliable enterprise operations. I've engineered 200+ Kafka Connect pipelines sustaining 500K+ messages per minute, built multi-cluster Kafka disaster-recovery architecture, and implemented Oracle-to-Snowflake change data capture.

My path began with hands-on electromechanical systems and expanded through database operations, cloud migrations, IBM Resilient SOAR customer engineering, and secure cloud automation. I work across Python, PowerShell, Java, Ruby on Rails, Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, Azure, CI/CD, observability, and DoD IL5/NIST SP 800-53 compliance, with a practical focus on preventing production issues and making deployments safer.
