What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

I am a seasoned DevOps Engineer and Cloud Architect with over 10 years of experience delivering robust, scalable, and secure cloud-native infrastructures and automation solutions. My expertise lies in architecting and implementing CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and container orchestration across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I have a proven track record of leading cross-functional teams to modernize legacy environments, enhance software delivery lifecycles, reduce operational costs, and improve security compliance.

Throughout my career, I have been passionate about driving digital transformation and fostering engineering excellence. I thrive on enabling developer velocity through automation, observability, and innovation. My recent projects include designing a multi-tenant SaaS platform for automated container updates and developing a serverless AI-powered Chrome extension that integrates OpenAI's large language models to provide real-time news updates. I am committed to leveraging best practices to enhance resource utilization and reduce operational expenses while maintaining performance and reliability.
