What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead secure cloud infrastructure and DevSecOps platform engineering—owning AWS landing zones, Kubernetes delivery (Terraform/Helm/Argo CD), and air‑gapped CI/CD—partnering with architects to deliver governance, compliance, and operational excellence.

I’m a Cloud Infrastructure and DevSecOps Lead with 11+ years delivering enterprise cloud, Kubernetes, DevSecOps, and platform engineering solutions across Banking, Education, SaaS, and Enterprise Technology. I focus on secure, scalable architectures aligned with governance, compliance, and operational excellence.

Recently, I led DevSecOps and platform engineering for an air-gapped banking environment—owning secure CI/CD platforms, Kubernetes services, release automation, and repository governance (RBAC, protected branches, standardized workflows). I also led VKS cluster administration and F5 CIS implementation, and drove cluster/CI-CD layer DC-DR planning with observability and security tooling like ELK Stack and Trend Micro.

Earlier, I built a multi-tenant University-as-a-System SaaS foundation on AWS using Control Tower, Landing Zone, Organizations/OUs, and provisioned Amazon EKS clusters with Terraform, Helm, and Argo CD. I integrate governance and secure delivery (IAM Identity Center, cross-account networking, SAST/DAST controls) and improve reliability with monitoring and Synthetic Canaries—plus I’ve automated Elastic/Kibana reporting to reduce update time from ~45 minutes to ~10 minutes.
