Platform & Cloud Engineer building AWS Kubernetes GitOps paved roads with self-service infrastructure and reliability guardrails.
What I'm looking for
I build paved roads for engineers: self-service infrastructure, GitOps delivery, and AWS cloud platforms teams can actually maintain. I’m focused on production-grade systems end to end on AWS—where I don’t just follow tutorials, I ship and operate.
My flagship project, TaskFlow, is a multi-environment platform on Amazon EKS: one Helm chart promoted across dev, staging, and production via an ArgoCD ApplicationSet, with GitHub Actions CI/CD (OIDC, no long-lived keys), ECR, Trivy image scanning, OPA policy gates, and automated rollback. I also own the cloud layer with Terraform-provisioned VPC and EKS plus routing and TLS automation (AWS Load Balancer Controller, ExternalDNS, ACM wildcard certificates, Route 53). For reliability, I built an Incident Lab using Chaos Mesh with a Break → Detect → Fix → Improve loop, supported by Prometheus and Grafana for detection.
