What I'm looking for

I seek roles building and operating secure, multi-cloud, Kubernetes-based platforms with strong DevOps/GitOps practices, focus on reliability, automation, and compliance.

I am a Senior DevOps and Site Reliability Engineer with 5+ years building cloud-native, secure, and highly available infrastructures across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I specialize in Kubernetes at scale, Terraform-driven infrastructure as code, and CI/CD/GitOps pipelines that accelerate delivery.

I have delivered production fintech systems including multi-cloud Kubernetes deployments and payment gateways processing millions of transactions daily, implemented observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Loki) and automated security and compliance controls to reduce vulnerabilities and downtime.

I partner closely with security and engineering teams to enforce standards, lead incident response and postmortems, and develop reusable IaC modules and pipelines that increase deployment speed and operational reliability.
