AWS Solutions Architect and DevOps/Site Reliability Engineer driving cloud reliability and cost optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am a certified AWS Solutions Architect and seasoned DevOps/Site Reliability Engineer with 5+ years building, migrating, and operating high-scale cloud systems for enterprise customers including Amazon and Capital One. I focus on reliability, observability, cost optimization, and secure infrastructure automation, having delivered large migrations, Terraform CI/CD pipelines, and production-grade monitoring solutions that reduced MTTR and improved operational maturity.
I lead cross-functional initiatives—designing SLOs, implementing blue/green deployments, and automating cost savings with hibernation strategies—while mentoring teams and improving testing maturity. My work spans AWS, Azure, and GCP, and includes achievements like host-class migrations with zero downtime, ML-driven cost right-sizing, and award-winning hackathon projects that reflect a strong outcomes-driven engineering ethos.
