What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values innovation and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a Cloud Architect with a strong technical background and extensive experience in AWS, Azure, and GCP. My expertise lies in cost optimization, upselling services, and designing cloud-native workloads. I excel in providing technical consulting on cloud platforms, analyzing cost and usage history to make informed recommendations for optimizing expenses.

Throughout my career, I have successfully collaborated with clients to develop budgets, identify volume discounts, and eliminate waste by pinpointing underutilized resources. My analytical skills, combined with my ability to communicate complex technology concepts effectively, have allowed me to deliver actionable insights and drive significant cost savings for organizations.

I am passionate about staying up-to-date with emerging technologies and continuously improving my skills. My certifications, including AWS Certified Solutions Architect and FinOps Certified Practitioner, reflect my commitment to excellence in the cloud domain. I am eager to leverage my expertise to help organizations navigate their cloud journeys efficiently.
