## About

```text
At Leanspace, I deployed an AI satellite telemetry interpreter on AWS SageMaker, integrated with a Kubernetes NVIDIA GPU cluster using vLLM. The AI workloads achieved 99.97% uptime.

I also migrated Leanspace's platform from legacy AWS infrastructure to Kubernetes with Terraform, Helm, and Helmfile, enabling deployments across bare metal, air-gapped, and multi-cloud environments. For Arianespace, I delivered a Kubernetes platform deployment in a highly restricted private environment.

Earlier at Leanspace, I built automated deployments to customers' AWS accounts and introduced observability and GitOps workflows. At Geeks Solutions, I delivered cloud infrastructure for healthcare and fintech customers, including HIPAA-ready and PCI-DSS-compliant platforms.
