I build cloud infrastructure and backend services with AWS, Go, and Node.js.

I've deployed and migrated backend applications across DigitalOcean, AWS, Railway, and containerized Linux environments.

At Best Study Guide, I migrated legacy backend applications to a hardened DigitalOcean Linux environment, configured Nginx reverse proxies with automated Let's Encrypt SSL/TLS renewal, and standardized multi-container deployments with Docker Compose.

At Konnect, I deployed microservices on AWS ECS Fargate, designed VPC networking with public and private subnets, security groups, and an Application Load Balancer, and built GitHub Actions pipelines for Docker images through Amazon ECR.

I've also built RESTful Node.js and TypeScript services with PostgreSQL and Redis, and designed an adaptive SDN network-slicing model using Ryu, OpenFlow, Mininet, and deep reinforcement learning.
