What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a forward-thinking company that values innovation and collaboration, offering opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

I am a Senior Hybrid Cloud Linux System Engineer with extensive experience in cloud computing, DevOps, and site reliability engineering. Over the past decade, I have honed my skills in designing and deploying scalable, secure, and cost-effective cloud solutions across various platforms, including AWS, Azure, and GCP. My work at the United Nations and other organizations has equipped me with a deep understanding of complex cloud architectures and the ability to manage multi-account environments effectively.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led numerous projects, including the migration of enterprise infrastructures to the cloud and the development of centralized logging management solutions. My technical expertise is complemented by a strong commitment to best practices in cloud security and compliance, particularly in GDPR-sensitive environments. I thrive in collaborative settings and enjoy mentoring junior engineers, ensuring that our teams are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in the fast-evolving tech landscape.
