What I'm looking for

I seek a senior engineering role focused on cloud automation, scalable CI/CD and IaC, with collaborative teams, growth opportunities, and a security-first culture.

I am a Senior DevOps Engineer with 8+ years building, automating, and optimizing infrastructure and delivery pipelines across AWS, Azure, and GCP. I specialize in cloud migration, container orchestration, Infrastructure as Code, and enterprise CI/CD solutions that boost release velocity, reliability, and security.

At TechFlow Innovations I architected a cloud migration for 150+ applications, reducing infrastructure costs by $2.1M annually and improving performance by 45%. I designed and deployed enterprise Kubernetes clusters managing 500+ microservices with 99.9% uptime and implemented GitOps workflows that cut deployment time from 4 hours to 15 minutes.

I lead cross-functional teams to implement observability and DevSecOps practices, integrating Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, and security scanning into pipelines to improve incident detection by 80% and reduce vulnerabilities by 70%. I also developed automated disaster recovery processes achieving aggressive RTOs and RPOs.

I bring a practical, results-driven approach that balances hands-on technical work with strategic planning to deliver scalable, secure, and cost-efficient cloud solutions aligned to business goals.
