What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on cloud/platform role where I can drive DevSecOps, CI/CD modernization, and cost-optimized, highly available infrastructure while mentoring teams.

I am a Senior DevOps Engineer with 10+ years designing, automating, and operating secure, scalable cloud platforms focused on reliability and cost optimization.

I have led cloud migrations, GitOps adoption, and enterprise DevOps transformations while modernizing legacy systems and accelerating software delivery.

My hands-on work includes building production-ready Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and CloudFormation, operating Kubernetes (EKS) platforms, and standardizing CI/CD with GitHub Actions and Jenkins.

I partner closely with engineering, SRE, and security teams, embed DevSecOps controls into pipelines, drive observability and automation, and mentor junior engineers to elevate operational excellence.
