What I'm looking for

I am seeking cloud/DevOps roles where I can design scalable, secure infrastructure, drive automation and FinOps-led cost optimization, and grow into solutions architecture leadership.

I am a Cloud Engineer with hands-on experience architecting, automating, and optimizing mission-critical deployments on AWS and Azure. I design secure, scalable cloud environments, implement IaC with Terraform and CloudFormation, manage Kubernetes (EKS) and Docker containers, and build CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI and Jenkins to accelerate delivery.

I deliver measurable outcomes including legacy migrations, performance improvements, and cost savings through FinOps practices, while collaborating with cross-functional teams in Agile environments. I hold multiple AWS certifications, a FinOps Practitioner credential, and I am pursuing a Master's in DevOps and Cloud Computing.
