I am Mohsen Abbas, a Principal DevOps Engineer with over ten years of specialized experience in managing on-premises and public cloud infrastructures. My career is distinguished by profound expertise in deploying and managing extensive Kubernetes clusters, including a 36-node cluster on Digital Ocean and a 125-node cluster at Limestone Networks for GPU-intensive workloads.
My technical proficiency spans hybrid cloud architectures across Linux platforms (RHEL, CentOS, Solaris), and I am adept at implementing 3-tier application architectures on AWS. I have designed and executed CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, ensuring comprehensive microservices deployments. My container orchestration capabilities include optimizing Kubernetes cluster performance with tools like Helm, and managing centralized logging with EFK stacks.
Additionally, I am proficient in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform, which has been instrumental in managing production-grade Kubernetes clusters. My role in security is highlighted by integrating Vault by HashiCorp for robust secrets management and deploying comprehensive synthetic monitoring systems using kube-prometheus-stack.
I hold several prestigious certifications, including:
*Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)*
*Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS)*
*AWS Solutions Architect - Associate*
These qualifications underscore my capability to ensure system reliability and performance insights, making me a valuable asset for designing resilient and efficient cloud solutions.
