I build secure multi-cloud Kubernetes platforms that reduce cost, accelerate recovery, and sustain high availability.
What I'm looking for
I lead cloud infrastructure at Acksession across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, owning GKE operations and building Terraform- and ArgoCD-driven multi-cluster platforms. I also built MCP servers and LangGraph-based multi-agent tooling that correlates telemetry and ranks remediation recommendations.
Previously at Cequens, I migrated 50+ microservices from EC2 to ECS and a cloud-agnostic Kubernetes estate, cutting cloud spend by over 40% while sustaining 99.95% availability for high-volume CPaaS platforms. I build observability, DevSecOps, and incident-response systems that cut MTTR from hours to minutes, and I mentor engineers on Kubernetes, Terraform, and AI-assisted infrastructure workflows.
