What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, growth-oriented engineering team where I can drive automation, improve reliability, and scale cloud-native systems while expanding my SRE and cloud expertise.

I am a results-driven DevOps Engineer and Site Reliability practitioner with over two years of hands-on experience in infrastructure automation, incident management, and cloud operations. I have maintained 99.9% application availability across Kubernetes environments and reduced system downtime by 25% through targeted operational improvements.

My technical strengths span Azure, AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, Docker, Prometheus, Grafana, and CI/CD platforms such as Azure DevOps, Jenkins, and GitHub Actions. I develop automation using PowerShell, Python, and Bash, and have implemented IaC and monitoring solutions that cut MTTR and routine work substantially.

I collaborate closely with development and cross-functional teams to resolve outages, document root causes, and transfer knowledge. I seek to apply my automation-first mindset and observability expertise to drive reliability, efficiency, and measurable business outcomes.
