Cloud Platform Engineer at Sole Security who cut AWS infrastructure deployment from 3 hours to 15 minutes with Terraform.

Canada

Message

At Sole Security, I designed and deployed a multi-AZ AWS VPC using Terraform, reducing infrastructure deployment time from 3 hours to 15 minutes and costs by 22%.

I built and maintained CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions and AWS CodePipeline, automating deployments across three environments and moving release cycles from two weeks to same-day delivery.

I also implemented CloudWatch, SNS, and PagerDuty monitoring and alerting at Sole Security, improving incident response by 40% and reducing unplanned downtime by 60%.

Previously, at Jolera, I administered Windows Server, VMware vSphere, Citrix, Active Directory, Azure, and network infrastructure supporting 700+ users. I maintained 99.9% infrastructure availability and contributed to security and operational improvements.
