What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative team role focused on cloud-native infrastructure, CI/CD automation, observability, and opportunities to scale reliable platforms while mentoring peers and improving delivery velocity.

I am a DevOps engineer with nearly five years of experience building cloud automation, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring solutions that reduce deployment time and minimize downtime. I drive operational efficiency through Infrastructure as Code, container orchestration, and proactive observability implementations.

I've delivered measurable results across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments—optimizing pipelines, creating reusable Terraform modules, and maintaining high-availability microservices. I collaborate with cross-functional teams to standardize releases, improve security posture, and automate repetitive tasks to free up team capacity.
