What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead cloud automation, strengthen security and cost optimization, and work cross-functionally to scale reliable production systems.

I am an AWS Certified Cloud Engineer with over four years of experience designing and automating scalable cloud infrastructure. I specialize in Terraform, Kubernetes (EKS), Docker, and GitHub Actions to deliver reliable, production-grade systems.

At Xentegra I deployed highly available EKS clusters across AZs, improved Docker image efficiency, and automated CI/CD pipelines that reduced delivery time by 25%. I also integrated Prometheus monitoring and DevSecOps controls to catch vulnerabilities early.

Previously, I provisioned and managed AWS infrastructure using Terraform to build redundant architectures including EC2, load balancers, ASGs, and multi-AZ RDS, achieving a 30% faster deployment cadence. I have implemented secure IAM policies and baked CIS Level 1 hardening into AMIs.

I am passionate about cost optimization, security, and operational excellence, and I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to align cloud solutions with business needs and compliance requirements.
