What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my technical skills and leadership experience to drive impactful projects and contribute to a dynamic team culture.

I am a highly accomplished Software and DevOps Engineer with over six years of experience in designing, building, and scaling robust code and infrastructure. My journey has been marked by a proven track record of leading high-performing engineering teams and successfully launching four new SaaS products. At SOOP, I played a pivotal role in the rapid launch and global scaling of our platform, driving go-to-market strategies and optimizing development workflows.

In my current role as a DevOps Engineer at LEDR Technologies, I spearheaded the implementation of CI/CD pipelines and managed critical infrastructure tasks. My experience spans across various technologies, including AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes, where I have significantly improved deployment workflows and security measures. I am passionate about mentoring and fostering collaborative environments, ensuring that my teams not only meet project milestones but also grow in their capabilities.
