What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth.

I am an AWS Certified DevOps Engineer and Solution Architect with over 6 years of experience in designing cost-efficient and scalable cloud architectures for SaaS platforms. My proven track record includes optimizing performance, reducing costs, and enhancing security for high-availability systems that support over 3,500 organizations and 2 million users. I excel in leading infrastructure automation, implementing CI/CD pipelines, and ensuring SOC2 compliance.

In my current role as a Senior DevOps Engineer, I achieved SOC2 compliance by collaborating with legal teams and implementing best practices in identity management and data encryption. I designed and implemented CI/CD pipelines that improved deployment speed by 40% and developed automated workflows that reduced manual efforts by 80%. My commitment to high availability and performance optimization has resulted in a 99% uptime for production systems and significant cost savings through strategic AWS resource management.
