Versatile AWS Cloud, DevOps, and FinOps Engineer.
What I'm looking for
I am a versatile AWS Cloud, DevOps, and FinOps Engineer with a proven track record of designing, building, and managing secure, scalable, and highly available infrastructure in cloud-native environments. My deep technical expertise in infrastructure-as-code (IaC), Kubernetes-based deployments, and multi-platform CI/CD pipelines has enabled me to deliver over $2.8M+ in annual AWS savings through proactive cost optimization and resource planning.
At Lyric Health, I led the AWS Cost Optimization Team, collaborating with various stakeholders to drive organization-wide savings. My initiatives included revamping tagging strategies, rightsizing AWS services, and implementing cost allocation tags, which significantly improved billing accuracy and resource visibility. I am passionate about bridging the gap between engineering excellence and financial accountability to enable agile and sustainable cloud operations.
