What I'm looking for

I seek a role building secure, automated Azure infrastructure with strong CI/CD, observability, and cross-functional collaboration for scalable production systems.

I am a cloud infrastructure engineer with hands-on experience designing, deploying, and securing Azure-based solutions for enterprise clients. I have implemented infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and cost-optimization practices to deliver reliable, secure systems.

At Ernst & Young I collaborated with cloud and security teams to align IAM policies, design secure mobile app deployments, and implement application monitoring using Application Insights. I developed Android apps and integrated native capabilities like NFC with WebView, demonstrating both backend and mobile competency.

My projects include containerized full-stack applications orchestrated with Kubernetes, Bicep-based deployments for VMs, VNets, Key Vault, and automated backup/recovery scenarios with Recovery Services Vault. I built CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, automated deployments with Python and Bash, and configured Prometheus and Grafana for metrics and alerting.

I hold multiple Microsoft certifications (AZ-104, AZ-900, AI-900, SC-900) and focus on secure, automated cloud operations, cost management, and observability. I work well in agile teams and prioritize secure, maintainable infrastructure that supports rapid delivery.
