What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, emphasizes security, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an accomplished Cloud Security Engineer and DevSecOps Specialist with over 7 years of experience in designing, implementing, and managing secure, scalable cloud infrastructures across AWS, GCP, and Azure. My expertise lies in integrating robust security measures into cloud environments, CI/CD pipelines, and application deployments. I have a proven track record of utilizing tools such as Terraform, AWS Config, CloudTrail, Splunk, and ELK to ensure secure, compliant, and well-architected cloud solutions.

Throughout my career, I have led significant initiatives that have optimized infrastructure for security, performance, and cost-efficiency. I have successfully spearheaded the design and implementation of CI/CD pipelines, reducing deployment times and improving release cycle efficiency. My commitment to security is evident in my integration of automated security scans and vulnerability assessments, enhancing overall system security while mentoring junior engineers to foster a culture of continuous improvement and best practices.
