What I'm looking for

I’m looking for Cloud/DevOps/Platform/SRE roles where I can build AWS + Kubernetes infrastructure with Terraform, own CI/CD pipelines, and deliver reliable, observable systems—ideally with teams focused on scalable infrastructure automation.

Cloud & DevOps Engineer with hands-on experience architecting and deploying cloud-native infrastructure on AWS, including container orchestration with Kubernetes on Amazon EKS and ECS Fargate, and Infrastructure-as-Code automation with Terraform. I've shipped full-stack applications end-to-end, from Node.js and Java/Spring services through to production-style deployment pipelines backed by GitHub Actions CI/CD and Prometheus/Grafana observability. I currently run an independent AWS and Linux training program, teaching cloud fundamentals to students with no prior technical background. I'm actively pursuing AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate and looking for Cloud Engineer, DevOps Engineer, Platform Engineer, or Site Reliability Engineer roles, open to remote work anywhere.
