Smit Shah
@smitshah
AWS Cloud Engineer and SRE focused on scalable, secure, cost-optimized systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m an AWS Cloud Engineer and SRE with over 3+ years of experience designing, deploying, and managing highly scalable, available cloud systems on AWS.
I align cloud solutions to business objectives, leveraging AWS services like EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, VPC, and DynamoDB to build reliable infrastructure. I also focus on security and compliance using IAM, KMS, CloudTrail, and CloudWatch, plus protections like AWS Shield and WAF.
I bring strong automation to every engagement—using Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and AWS CloudFormation/CloudFormation, and building repeatable deployments across environments. For delivery, I’ve implemented CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline, GitLab, and Argo CD for Kubernetes/EKS, reducing downtime and improving operational flow.
I’ve led migrations of legacy workloads to AWS using AWS Migration Hub and Database Migration Service (DMS), and I’ve implemented disaster recovery with AWS Backup, CloudEndure, and multi-region strategies to minimize downtime. I’m also deeply focused on cost optimization using AWS Cost Explorer, Trusted Advisor, and AWS Budgets, and I’ve automated operational workflows with Bash/Python to reduce manual intervention by 30%.
