What I'm looking for
I am a versatile professional blending technical expertise with business acumen, specializing in leveraging digital transformation to drive business growth. With proven hands-on experience in architecting and building solutions on AWS cloud, I am a 2x AWS-certified Solutions Architect and Azure Fundamentals Certified. My ambition is to further advance as a cloud solutions architect, enabling businesses to seize opportunities swiftly through well-architected, scalable, and reliable cloud infrastructures.
A highlight of my career was leading the automation of a finance department by deploying and customizing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. This initiative not only enhanced management reporting but also significantly reduced patient waiting times at City Eye Hospital. I excel at analyzing business needs and designing tailored cloud solutions that meet both technical and stakeholder requirements, ensuring operational excellence and long-term productivity.
