DevOps/SRE Engineer with 13+ years building reliable, automated cloud and container platforms.
What I'm looking for
I am a DevOps/SRE engineer with over 13 years of IT experience, specializing in Linux administration, cloud infrastructure, and automation. I design, deploy, and maintain scalable, secure, highly available systems using tools like AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, Ansible, Jenkins, Terraform and GitOps workflows.
Across enterprise engagements I have led cloud network setups, large-scale OS and container platform deployments, and built CI/CD pipelines that improved release velocity and reliability. I have managed thousands of Red Hat nodes, implemented OpenStack and Kubernetes clusters, integrated storage with Ceph, and enabled GPU support for AI/ML workloads.
My approach emphasizes operational excellence: automation, observability, security hardening, incident RCA and continuous improvement. I deliver robust infrastructure, streamline runbooks and automation, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure production readiness and fast, safe releases.
