What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for professional growth in cloud technologies.

I am a dedicated DevOps Engineer and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner with extensive hands-on experience in cloud infrastructure automation, CI/CD pipeline support, and systems reliability. My journey in technology began with a Diploma in Cloud Engineering from Altschool Africa, and I have since honed my skills in deploying cloud-native applications using tools such as AWS, Docker, Terraform, and Jenkins.

Throughout my career, I have successfully supported scalable, secure, and high-availability infrastructure across both startup and enterprise environments. My role as a Junior Cloud Engineer at the University of Lagos allowed me to deploy and manage AWS and GCP cloud-native services, while my current positions involve maintaining Jenkins-based CI/CD pipelines and managing containerized workloads for SaaS platforms. I am passionate about contributing to cost optimization and enhancing system reliability through collaboration with SRE teams.
