DevOps and Cloud Engineer specializing in multi-cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and CI/CD automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a DevOps/Cloud and Linux engineer with 5+ years building scalable, secure cloud-native systems across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I have led design and deployment of IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) on ROSA/OpenShift, built repeatable CI/CD pipelines, automated infrastructure with Terraform/Ansible, and improved reliability and cost-efficiency through observability and optimization.
I collaborate closely with product owners, architects, and engineers to deliver production-ready platforms, mentor junior staff, and act as the primary contact for platform support and incident response. My experience spans Kafka, Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/ROSA/GKE), monitoring stacks (Prometheus/Grafana/ELK), and automation that reduces downtime and operational costs.
