What I'm looking for

I seek a remote or hybrid role building cloud-native infrastructure, leading CI/CD and GitOps initiatives, improving observability and DevSecOps, and growing into advanced AWS/platform responsibilities within a collaborative engineering team.

I am a DevOps Engineer with a strong backend development foundation and 2-3 years of hands-on experience building scalable infrastructure, automating CI/CD pipelines, and deploying containerized microservices.

I have built and deployed a full-tier Kubernetes web application on Amazon EKS with automated CI/CD using GitHub Actions and Jenkins, deployed 10+ microservices with Helm, and integrated Argo CD for GitOps workflows. I have configured Istio for traffic management and used OPA and Kyverno for policy and security enforcement.

I implement observability and autoscaling using Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, and KEDA, and have optimized pipelines to reduce build and deployment times by 43%. I combine backend experience in Python/Django with infrastructure as code to deliver reliable, production-ready systems.

I have worked across freelance, startup, and remote roles, designed backend architectures using Django and Supabase, hold a DevOps from Beginner to Advanced (Udemy) certification (Sept 2024), contribute to open-source DevOps projects, and I am actively learning advanced AWS services, DevSecOps, and cloud-native security.
