What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable, secure cloud platforms with automation-first teams, strong DevSecOps practices, and opportunities to lead Kubernetes migrations and cost-optimization initiatives.

I am a DevOps engineer with five years of experience architecting and optimizing cloud-native infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP, delivering significant cost savings and high-availability systems. I specialize in infrastructure automation, DevSecOps practices, large-scale Kubernetes migrations, and enterprise CI/CD implementations that improve deployment velocity and reduce errors.

I have led migrations of 50+ microservices to EKS/RKE2, implemented centralized observability stacks that cut MTTR by 65%, and achieved $65K+ in annual savings through rightsizing and automation. I prioritize secure, resilient architectures—using HashiCorp Vault, secrets management, WAF/CDN, and air-gapped environments—while enabling AI/ML and vector-search solutions for modern application needs.
