What I'm looking for

I seek roles building and automating secure, scalable cloud platforms using IaC and strong OSS tooling, with mentorship and growth opportunities.

I am a DevOps and Infrastructure Engineer with four years of international experience designing, automating, and operating cloud-based solutions across Azure, AWS and GCP. I focus on Infrastructure as Code, reliable Linux-based operations, and secure networking to deliver scalable platforms for businesses and enterprise teams.

I've architected and operated automated cloud infrastructure, built IaC and configuration frameworks with Terraform, Ansible, Azure DevOps, Bash, PowerShell and Python, and improved reliability through monitoring, cost optimisation and security best practices. I progressed quickly in corporate roles, moving from trainee to technical lead while training new hires and overseeing platform access.

As an independent consultant I design and run secure cloud infrastructure for small businesses and government clients, perform audits, and standardise provisioning and lifecycle management. I am results-driven, documentation-focused, and committed to building maintainable, observable systems that meet both technical and business needs.
