What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role in a dynamic environment that fosters innovation and growth.

I am an innovative thinker and multi-dimensional professional with a Master's in Computer Science from Liverpool Hope University, UK. With over 10 years of experience in IT, I have honed my skills as a DevOps/Cloud Engineer, where I thrive on solving complex problems and automating repetitive tasks. My expertise lies in deploying and maintaining cloud infrastructure, particularly using AWS and Azure, and I am passionate about finding improved solutions to existing challenges.

Throughout my career, I have supported various clients, including the London Stock Exchange Group and Marchex, where I designed scalable monitoring systems and automated provisioning of containerized workloads. My experience spans across multiple technologies, including Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines, allowing me to contribute effectively to any engineering team. I take pride in my ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams to define SLAs and SLOs, ensuring high-quality service delivery.
