What I'm looking for

Looking for a role that allows me to utilize my skills in automation, cloud security, and DevOps practices to create efficient, resilient, and secure platforms.

I'm a seasoned Site Reliability Engineer with a strong focus on automation, rightsized automated scaling, cloud security, observability, and implementing DevOps practices. I've built and managed digital platforms, developed CI/CD pipelines, and driven cloud automation, mostly with Kubernetes as a large-scale container orchestration compute source.

I prioritize collaboration, security-first approaches, and automating infrastructure using open-source tools and solutions where possible. I'm passionate about creating efficient, resilient, and secure platforms.

With over 13 years of experience in the tech industry, I've worked with various companies, including Ayvens, Capgemini, Luno, and Amazon Web Services, holding roles such as Senior DevOps Engineer, Senior Consultant, Cloud Security Specialist, Operability Engineer, and Cloud Support Engineer.
