Cloud & Network Architect focused on secure, cost-efficient AWS edge+data stacks. Telco networking, Linux/KVM, FinOps. Open to full-remote.
BrazilWhat I'm looking for
Cloud & Network Solutions Architect with a strong telco backbone (L3/NOC, BGP/OSPF, QoS, F5 LTM) transitioning my core expertise to Cloud architecture, security by design, and FinOps.
I design and operate reliable edge→data pipelines on AWS: CloudFront logs to S3 (raw), Glue catalog, Athena queries, and CTAS→Parquet for faster/cheaper analytics. I implement origin access controls (OAC), security headers (HSTS/CSP), baseline WAF rules for common probes, and cost KPIs such as $/1M requests and $/GB stored. On the platform side: Linux administration/hardening, KVM/VMware, backups/restore, monitoring/alerts, runbooks, and postmortems.
Recent focus: detect → analyze → remediate → optimize at the edge and data layers (CloudFront, WAF/Shield, S3, Athena/Glue, CloudWatch). English exchange in Vancouver (ILAC – High-Intermediate, Level 9). I value ownership, clear goals, fast feedback, and I’m comfortable wearing multiple hats in lean teams.
Open to fully-remote roles with timezone overlap across the Americas/Europe (USD/EUR). Keywords: AWS, Networking & TCP/IP, Linux, Security by Design, FinOps basics, Python/boto3 (automation), Observability.
