Platform engineering and SRE leader building secure, scalable AI cloud platforms.
What I'm looking for
At Together AI, I built an enterprise AWS-native platform for scalable AI SaaS delivery—using serverless compute, storage, and databases to support reliability and engineering productivity. I also built internal developer platform self-service workflows, standard patterns, and automation services across Go, TypeScript, and Python. On top of that, I integrated agentic AI workflows with orchestration pipelines and MCP-based platform capabilities.
Before that, at Cohere Health I led cloud reliability for mission-critical healthcare platforms, implementing SLI/SLOs, error budgets, and operational maturity. I led Kubernetes platform governance (cluster lifecycle, security controls, and workload optimization), and built observability with Datadog, OpenTelemetry, and distributed tracing. I also implemented HIPAA-aligned security practices and automated governance controls to protect PHI.
Earlier, I architected Kubernetes-based microservices platforms at Temporal Technologies and built Terraform automation for repeatable multi-environment infrastructure. At Uptycs, I managed Linux-based AWS infrastructures for cybersecurity applications—provisioning core AWS services, automating deployments, and building CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and Git-based tooling.
