What I'm looking for

I’m seeking senior platform/SRE roles where I can architect and operate cloud-native platforms, mentor teams, and drive automation and secure infrastructure.

I am an experienced Consultant and SRE with 20 years supporting small, mid-sized and enterprise environments, focused on Platform/DevOps and SecOps. I design, build and maintain monolithic and microservices infrastructures across public and private clouds and data centers.

As a technical lead and engineering manager, I architect and engineer systems, lead consulting and training engagements, assist in technical pre-sales, and onboard and mentor engineers. I’ve delivered solutions and spoken at events globally.

My hands-on work includes Linux, AWS/GCP, Kubernetes, service meshes, GitOps, Argo, Helm, Terraform and automation using Python, TypeScript/JavaScript and node.js. I’ve improved training materials and supported development teams across multiple clients.

I have experience founding and consulting for companies, and working in roles from systems administration to senior platform engineering and technical specialist positions, always emphasizing clear communication, teamwork and pragmatic problem solving.
