## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm seeking Junior DevOps, Azure Administrator, or Cloud Support roles where I can apply Terraform, AKS, OIDC, GitHub Actions, and Linux troubleshooting. I prefer remote work and am open to anywhere.
```

## About

```text
At Arodonna ICT Arena, I provision Azure infrastructure with Terraform and manage labs spanning Entra ID, AKS, and other Azure services. I built a chained GitHub Actions pipeline that uses OIDC to connect Terraform, ACR, and Kubernetes deployment without stored client secrets.

On my aks-pipeline project, I troubleshot six pipeline failures and verified deployments with rollout checks and a live HTTP response. I also built a serverless student registration portal with Azure Functions, Azure SQL, and Storage, and documented my work on Medium and GitHub.
```
