What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own cloud and SRE platform architecture, drive progressive delivery, observability, and FinOps, and build automation that keeps production highly available with minimal toil.

I believe reliable infrastructure isn’t a luxury—it’s the baseline. I bring twelve years of cloud engineering across AWS, GCP, and Azure, evolving from hands-on server rack work to fully automated, multi-region Kubernetes deployments.

At Clodovatech, I lead a cloud platform team of 6 engineers, supporting production infrastructure for 3,400 enterprise tenants across 5 AWS regions. I engineered a multi-region EKS platform running 160 microservices with progressive delivery via Argo Rollouts, reducing failed deployments from 12 per quarter to zero while enabling 200 production deploys per week.

I rebuilt the infrastructure as code layer using Terraform with Atlantis for PR-based workflows, migrating 900 manually provisioned resources to versioned IaC with drift detection across 16 AWS accounts. I also architected observability on Datadog with custom SLO dashboards and automated incident response with PagerDuty and Rootly, cutting mean time to detection from 18 minutes to 90 seconds.

Previously at HashiCorp, I operated and scaled an internal cloud platform serving 400 engineers, designing multi-tenant EKS with namespace isolation, network policies, and OPA Gatekeeper. I built secrets management with Vault (auto-unsealing, dynamic database credentials, PKI automation) and delivered CI/CD improvements by migrating from Jenkins to GitHub Actions—reducing average pipeline time from 22 minutes to 6 minutes.
