What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote, async-friendly cloud and data engineering work where I can build secure AWS APIs, event-driven pipelines, and automated infrastructure with distributed, cross-functional teams.

At Itility LLC, I design and maintain event-driven data pipelines with AWS API Gateway, Lambda, and Step Functions, connecting upstream sources to downstream data consumers through secure, scalable RESTful APIs.

Previously, I delivered AWS API, cloud, and DevSecOps solutions for Agile5 Technologies, Booz Allen Hamilton, Elder Research, and Amazon Web Services. I've automated infrastructure with Terraform and CloudFormation, deployed containerized workloads on Kubernetes and AWS, and built CI/CD delivery pipelines for enterprise environments.

I'm AWS Certified in Security – Specialty and Solutions Architect – Associate, with 10+ years of hands-on cloud, infrastructure, automation, and security experience across distributed teams.
