What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can own CI/CD and SRE reliability for AI/LLM products—improving uptime, incident response, and cost efficiency—while partnering closely with engineering leadership on secure, scalable infrastructure.

I’m a DevOps/SRE engineer with 8+ years automating delivery and running reliable cloud infrastructure for AI-powered SaaS platforms. I focus on CI/CD automation, operational excellence, and building systems that stay dependable under real traffic.

I’ve built CI/CD pipelines that cut deployment time by over 60% (from 30 minutes to under 10), and I’ve operated Docker/Kubernetes workloads at 99.9% uptime. I also optimize infrastructure to reduce cloud costs by 25-30%, while supporting AI/LLM services handling 100K+ requests per day.

In production, I lead incident response and on-call rotations, maintaining a sub-15-minute mean time to resolution (MTTR) for critical alerts and driving fixes through post-incident reviews. I’m experienced across AWS, GCP, and Azure, and I deploy production LLM/RAG services using FastAPI and the OpenAI API.
