What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own infrastructure end-to-end—Terraform-based automation, reliable production operations, and security built in (DevSecOps). I want roles where change management and rollout governance matter, with tools like Grafana, PagerDuty, and ServiceNow.

At Pearson, I designed and maintained scalable Terraform infrastructure (IaC) for 10+ projects using reusable shared modules, then migrated Kubernetes-based workloads to an Amazon ECS cluster to simplify orchestration and improve operational manageability.

I’ve managed 10+ production applications across 8 AWS accounts and 7 environments, keeping high availability and near-zero downtime while optimizing cloud costs. I also improved security and reliability by implementing AWS WAF across publicly exposed HTTP API Gateways via centralized Terraform modules.

I led cloud migrations across on-prem → AWS, AWS → AWS, and multi-cloud → AWS, coordinating integrations with Azure and Windows systems with limited documentation. I’ve also supported deployments with tools like Jenkins, Travis CI, Bitbucket/Git, and governed change management and release approvals for production stability.
