What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead secure, scalable cloud and DevOps automation—building reliable CI/CD, Kubernetes platforms, and strong observability—while improving compliance and reducing downtime in enterprise environments.

I’m a Senior Cloud & DevOps Engineer with 10+ years of IT infrastructure experience, including 5+ years specializing in AWS cloud platforms, Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, and DevOps automation. I design, implement, and operate secure, scalable, and highly available enterprise environments across cloud and on-premises infrastructures.

In my recent EPAM work, I automated end-to-end delivery using GitLab CI, provisioned repeatable infrastructure with Terraform, and orchestrated containerized applications on Kubernetes to improve reliability and application uptime. Previously at PASHA Technology, I engineered AWS environments with Terraform, built CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and GitLab CI, strengthened security and compliance (IAM, Vault, AWS Config), and delivered observability with Prometheus, Grafana, Zabbix, and CloudWatch.
