What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead cloud-native platform design, improve developer experience, implement DevSecOps and observability, and drive scalable automation in collaborative, security-focused teams.

I am a results-driven DevOps and Platform Engineer with 4+ years building secure, scalable cloud-native platforms across FinTech, HealthTech, and SaaS. I specialize in Kubernetes orchestration, GitOps (Argo CD), and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) to accelerate delivery and improve reliability.

At VFDTech and U-CarePlus I architected multi-tenant Kubernetes platforms, automated CI/CD pipelines, and implemented DevSecOps and observability practices that sustained 99.9% uptime, cut deployment lead times by up to 60%, and reduced MTTR by ~40%.

I focus on Developer Experience by building internal automation tools, scaling MLOps pipelines, and driving cost-efficient cloud operations while enforcing security and compliance across the software supply chain.
