What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a hands-on cloud/platform role where I can run Azure/AWS and Kubernetes operations end-to-end, strengthen Microsoft 365 security and identity, and build proactive observability with strong CI/CD and production support culture.

I’m a Senior Cloud Infrastructure & Platform Operations Engineer with 12.5+ years of experience across Microsoft 365 Administration, Azure Cloud Infrastructure, AWS, Kubernetes Operations, Linux Administration, Monitoring & Observability, and Production Support. I’ve managed 100+ servers in hybrid environments, serving as an escalation point for incident handling, troubleshooting, and infrastructure stability.

I’ve built and operated Kubernetes clusters with kubeadm, supported microservices with kubectl workflows, and implemented end-to-end observability using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Kibana/ELK, and New Relic. On the Microsoft side, I’ve led Microsoft 365 migrations, managed Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Teams, Intune, Entra ID, Conditional Access, and performed Windows Autopilot and hybrid identity configurations.
