What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior DevOps/cloud roles focused on automation, CI/CD, and multi‑cloud infrastructure where I can lead reliability, security, and cost optimization efforts.

I am a Senior DevOps and Cloud Engineer with over nine years of experience delivering CI/CD, configuration management, and multi‑cloud infrastructure across AWS and Azure. I design and automate scalable, highly available systems using Terraform, Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud native services to reduce deployment time and operational costs.

At enterprise organizations I have built and maintained CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, CodePipeline), managed AKS/EKS/OpenShift clusters, and implemented monitoring and security controls using Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, Datadog, and Azure Security Center. I have a strong track record of improving system reliability, performance tuning, and driving cloud migrations.

I collaborate closely with development teams, apply IaC and DevOps best practices, and focus on automation, compliance, and cost optimization to deliver resilient production platforms and faster delivery cycles.
