Senior DevOps Engineer specializing in AWS, Kubernetes, IaC, and scalable CI/CD automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Senior DevOps Engineer with over 10 years designing, automating, and optimizing cloud-native infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines. I focus on delivering high-availability systems through Infrastructure as Code and modern DevOps practices.
I've led multi-region AWS deployments with Terraform and CloudFormation, migrated CI/CD workflows to GitHub Actions, and deployed Kubernetes (EKS) with Istio to ensure robust observability and uptime. My work has reduced cloud spend, improved deployment velocity, and significantly reduced deployment errors.
I advocate DevSecOps and GitOps, contribute to open-source Terraform and Helm modules, and have mentored junior engineers to scale automation across teams.
