What I'm looking for

I am looking for a global remote DevOps or SRE role where I can design scalable cloud systems, improve infrastructure automation, and drive reliability through CI/CD, Kubernetes, and observability best practices.

I am a DevOps Engineer and Site Reliability Engineer with over 5 years of experience designing, automating, and maintaining reliable, scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I specialize in Kubernetes-based architectures, infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible), GitOps workflows (ArgoCD, FluxCD), and advanced observability (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, ELK).

At Siemens Healthineers, I led DevOps initiatives that reduced deployment times by 80%, improved system uptime to 99.99%, and cut cloud expenses by 25%. I have built self-healing platforms using Kubernetes Operators, HPA/VPA, and designed robust CI/CD pipelines with Blue-Green and Canary deployments. My security-first approach incorporates Zero Trust principles, RBAC policies, and automated scanning to ensure compliance and resiliency.

I am passionate about building developer-friendly platforms, improving incident response through SRE best practices (SLIs/SLOs, chaos engineering), and scaling infrastructure that enables product teams to ship faster and safer.

I am currently looking for DevOps or SRE roles where I can architect infrastructure, enhance observability, optimize cloud operations, and contribute to a culture of automation and reliability.
