DevOps Engineer driving Kubernetes reliability with CI/CD and Terraform.
What I'm looking for
I’m a DevOps Engineer with 4+ years of experience leading cloud infrastructure and Kubernetes-based platforms in production. I bring strong expertise in GCP, CI/CD, GitOps, and Terraform, with hands-on ownership of deployment automation, infrastructure provisioning, and reliability engineering.
In my current role, I manage production and staging GKE clusters for multiple microservices, keeping high availability and reliability across environments. I designed scalable GitLab CI/CD pipelines, integrated SonarQube and Trivy for security and code quality, and implemented GitOps-based releases with ArgoCD for consistent, version-controlled deployments.
I also architect GCP infrastructure (Compute Engine, Cloud Storage, VPC, IAM, Load Balancers, Cloud SQL) using Terraform and automate operational workflows—like PostgreSQL backup/restoration—reducing manual effort by 70%. Through incident response and root cause analysis, I’ve reduced resolution time by 40%, while strengthening security via SSL management, access controls, and secure Kubernetes/GCP configurations.
