I'm a Certified Kubernetes Administrator and AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate, working across AWS, Hetzner, OVH, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Linux, monitoring, security hardening, cloud migrations, and incident response. I've delivered 10+ DevOps engagements and build secure, repeatable delivery systems for distributed teams.
