What I'm looking for

I seek roles focused on cloud reliability, automation and infrastructure where I can improve operational efficiency, drive cost optimization and implement robust CI/CD and observability practices.

I am a DevOps engineer with hands-on experience supporting cloud infrastructure and Linux-based systems, focused on reliability, automation, monitoring and operational efficiency.

At Hug Labs I drove pipeline automation, Kubernetes cluster management, on-premises to AWS migrations, GPU instance provisioning, cost analysis and resource optimization, while maintaining backups, disaster recovery and access control.

Previously I provided financial L2 support and payments operations, bridging support and engineering to reduce response times, improve fraud prevention and document operational workflows; I also build hands-on labs and documented projects showcased on my GitHub.
