GCP-certified cloud engineer specializing in secure, scalable, cost-optimized architectures.
United Arab EmiratesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a GCP-certified Cloud Engineer with 2+ years of hands-on experience designing, deploying, and optimizing production-grade infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform. I translate complex business requirements into resilient, secure, and cost-efficient cloud architectures, with a strong focus on cloud migrations, Kubernetes orchestration, IaC automation, CI/CD engineering, and cost optimization.
In my recent work, I led end-to-end migrations of 12+ production workloads to GCP with zero-downtime cutover and maintained 99.9% uptime. I’ve built modular Terraform foundations, owned Cloud Build CI/CD pipelines with security scanning, implemented multi-region disaster recovery strategies, and hardened security using VPC Service Controls, IAM, Workload Identity, Secret Manager, and Cloud Armor—while driving measurable FinOps improvements (including a 30% cost reduction).

Aug 2024 - Present (1 year 10 months)
Led end-to-end migration of 12+ production workloads to GCP using Shared VPC and org-level IAM constraints, achieving zero-downtime cutover and 99.9% uptime. Architected multi-region GKE autoscaling, delivered modular Terraform to cut provisioning time from 4 hours to under 45 minutes, and improved security, DR, and cost (30% savings) across production workloads.
Provisioned and managed GCP environments (Compute Engine, Cloud SQL, VPC, Cloud Storage) for 3 internal application teams with consistent access controls. Built Cloud Build CI/CD integrated with GitHub (reducing manual deployment effort by ~50%), supported GKE microservices migration, and triaged 20+ incidents with runbooks that reduced average resolution time by 25%.
