Senior DevSecOps & SRE engineer building secure, scalable cloud platforms and automated reliability.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Senior DevSecOps, DevOps, and SRE engineer with 10+ years designing and operating secure, scalable cloud platforms across SaaS, AI, FinTech, Data, and Healthcare. I’m expert in AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, and Terraform, and I focus on reliability driven by SLOs/SLIs.
I embed security across the SDLC through DevSecOps practices like IAM, policy as code, and secure CI/CD and GitOps pipelines. In my recent role, I led DevSecOps initiatives, reduced deployment time by 30%, improved uptime to 99.99%, and cut MTTR by 20%, while supporting SOC2/PCI-DSS-aligned infrastructure and audit readiness.
I also build intelligent automation with AIOps/MLOps—deploying solutions with MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker, and Azure ML, containerizing workloads on Kubernetes, and integrating observability for real-time alerting. I’ve led engineering teams, optimized cloud costs (10–15%), and mentored others on DevSecOps best practices.
