What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior cloud role where I can design secure, scalable Azure architectures, lead migrations, implement DevOps/IaC, and drive data/AI initiatives within a collaborative, growth-oriented team.

I am a Cloud Solution Architect with deep hands-on experience designing and delivering Azure IaaS/PaaS/SaaS architectures, DevOps automation, migrations and data/AI platforms. I lead end-to-end cloud solutions, implement governance using Azure Policy/Blueprints and optimize total cost of ownership while driving HA/DR and security best practices.

My background includes leading Azure Landing Zones, AKS containerization, CI/CD with Azure DevOps and Terraform, integrating Microsoft Fabric/Synapse/Power BI and enabling generative AI with Azure AI Studio and ML. I combine presales, partner engagement and operational troubleshooting to deliver scalable, governed cloud platforms and measurable business outcomes.
