What I'm looking for

I seek a role driving cloud reliability and automation where I can build scalable CI/CD pipelines, implement IaC, embed DevSecOps, and mentor teams in an outcome-focused, collaborative environment.

I am a Senior DevOps and Cloud Engineer with 5+ years building enterprise-scale automation, CI/CD systems, and multi-cloud infrastructure across AWS and Azure. I apply SRE principles to improve availability, latency, performance, capacity planning, and incident response.

I have designed and operated resilient Kubernetes/OpenShift environments, implemented Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and CloudFormation, and built robust pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, ArgoCD and Helm. I led DevOps transformations, automated change management, and enabled Agile release trains through repeatable pipelines and Terraform modules for multi-account cloud environments.

My certifications include AWS DevOps Engineer Professional, AWS Solutions Architect Associate, AWS Cloud Practitioner, and Certified Kubernetes Administrator. I seek roles where I can drive reliability, security, and efficiency using automation, observability, and DevSecOps best practices.
