Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience in Python and DevOps.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Software Engineer with over four years of experience specializing in Python and DevOps. My journey has been marked by a commitment to designing scalable systems and optimizing cloud infrastructure. I have a proven track record of developing and maintaining Python-based microservices that streamline backend workflows and enhance system performance. My passion lies in leveraging technology to solve complex problems and improve operational performance, which I have demonstrated through successful projects across various organizations.
At Turing, I spearheaded the migration of infrastructure to a containerized environment using Docker and Kubernetes, significantly reducing deployment time by 50%. My role involved integrating CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, which ensured faster and more reliable code releases. Additionally, I implemented robust logging and monitoring solutions with Prometheus and Grafana, enhancing system reliability and reducing downtime by 25%. My collaborative approach has allowed me to work effectively with cross-functional teams to design APIs that enable seamless integration with third-party platforms.
Previously, at Analogue Shifts and GoldenOX Partners Limited, I led initiatives that automated data processing and improved cloud infrastructure management, resulting in substantial cost savings and enhanced system performance. My educational background in Computer Engineering, coupled with certifications in cloud engineering and product management, equips me with a comprehensive understanding of both technical and business aspects of software development.
