## About

```text
At Sidsecops, I architect and manage production AWS multi-account environments, including EKS clusters, RDS, ElastiCache, and VPC networking. I also debug production incidents through Linux- and application-level root cause analysis.

I designed and deployed AuditWolf, an internal compliance automation tool for continuous audit monitoring and evidence tracking. I help startups prepare for SOC 2 and HIPAA, and built an AI-powered engine that recommends AWS cost savings.

At Sidsecops, I reduced average cloud spending by 30–35% through cost governance and manage AWS environments with commitment strategies. Previously, at Opcito Technologies and Ollion (Formerly CloudCover), I worked on AWS infrastructure, Kubernetes, security, and DevOps; at Opcito Technologies, I reduced AWS expenses by over $20,000 monthly.
