Emmanuel Offisong
@emmanueloffisong
Senior cloud & data engineer building secure AWS/GCP/Azure platforms with Kubernetes, Terraform, and DevSecOps.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Cloud Engineer and Data Engineer with 7+ years of experience designing secure AWS, GCP, and Azure platforms. I specialize in Kubernetes, Terraform, DevSecOps, data engineering, and AI-powered automation.
I’ve delivered infrastructure supporting millions of records daily, reduced deployment times from hours to minutes, and led cloud modernization initiatives across fintech, data, and AI-driven organizations. In my recent work, I migrated 5TB+ of production data with full GDPR compliance, enabling scalable enterprise analytics.
On the engineering side, I build automation that removes manual toil—like agentic workflows using Claude and GitHub webhooks, and an end-to-end microservices deployment framework with Terraform. I also implement production-ready reliability and observability using an Istio-powered service mesh, canary deployments, distributed tracing, and cluster-wide monitoring.
I care deeply about security and operational excellence, strengthening cloud security postures via networking isolation, AWS Client VPN, AWS WAF guardrails, and continuous threat detection with GuardDuty, Inspector, and Security Hub. I bring the same mindset to data pipelines and MLOps—shipping Airflow/DAG-driven ingestion and SageMaker-based ML workflows that reduce manual overhead and speed delivery.
