## About

```text
On fintech platforms serving 160K+ users, I’ve worked across DevOps, backend engineering, and cloud-native systems. I deploy Kubernetes-based microservices across multiple environments using Terraform and Ansible-driven workflows.

I’ve automated build, test, delivery, and environment deployment with GitHub Actions and AWS workflows. My backend work includes Spring Boot, Express.js, REST APIs, webhooks, and long-lived integrations.

I’m currently expanding into backend engineering and Agentic AI on AWS. Through the AWS Agentic AI Engineer Nanodegree, I’m building practical agent-based applications with Amazon Bedrock.
