What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own CI/CD and Kubernetes reliability, automate infrastructure with Terraform, strengthen security scanning, and use monitoring/incident response to improve uptime, deployment speed, and operational excellence.

I’m a Site Reliability / DevOps Engineer with 5 years of IT experience, including 4 years in DevOps, helping teams improve system reliability, scalability, deployment speed, and security through automation and modern DevOps practices.

I’ve designed and managed highly available infrastructure on AWS and Azure using Terraform and CloudFormation, built CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, GitLab CI, and GitHub Actions, and deployed and operated Kubernetes platforms (EKS/AKS) with monitoring via Prometheus and Grafana. In production, I’ve led release management and access control, integrated security scanning (SonarQube, Fortify, Nexus IQ) into pipelines, and performed RCA to drive continuous reliability improvements.
