What I'm looking for

I seek senior cloud engineering or cloud manager roles where I can lead teams, implement IaC and Kubernetes platforms, drive migrations and ensure secure, compliant, scalable cloud infrastructure.

I have over 25 years of experience delivering cloud and infrastructure solutions, focusing on DevOps, Kubernetes, automation and compliance. I manage and troubleshoot large Kubernetes environments (including 28 Rancher/RKE2 clusters), migrated applications to AWS EKS, and architected AWS GovCloud solutions to meet FISMA High requirements.

I implement Infrastructure as Code and configuration management with Ansible, Terraform and CloudFormation to speed deployments and improve reliability, and I lead and mentor cloud engineering teams to deliver secure, scalable infrastructure. I hold certifications including CKA, CKAD, HashiCorp Terraform Associate and AWS Solutions Architect Associate.
