What I'm looking for

I want to build resilient cloud infrastructure and automation-heavy Kubernetes platforms—owning SRE reliability, observability, and CI/CD delivery that shortens release cycles while keeping uptime high.

I’m an Infrastructure Engineer and Site Reliability Specialist with an M.Sci. in Computer Science and an MBA, focused on architecting resilient cloud infrastructure and maintaining high platform reliability. I’ve engineered SRE incident response and observability using Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and ELK to support 99.9% platform availability.

Across Kubernetes and CI/CD delivery, I automate Kubernetes and Terraform IaC deployments and build reliable GitOps workflows with Jenkins, ArgoCD, and GitHub Actions. In recent work, I delivered a 90% reduction in production release times and accelerated legacy deployments through containerisation and dependency simplification.
