What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on DevOps/cloud role focused on automation, observability, and cost-efficient, high-availability systems, with opportunities to lead infrastructure and improve CI/CD.

I am a DevOps Engineer with 4+ years of experience architecting AWS infrastructure and automating CI/CD pipelines for high-traffic applications. I specialize in Terraform, Kubernetes (EKS), Jenkins, Docker, and production incident management, consistently delivering high uptime.

At NCore Technology I provisioned infrastructure-as-code for 50+ EC2 instances, deployed 25+ microservices on EKS serving 2M+ daily requests, built 15+ Jenkins pipelines, and implemented cost optimizations that reduced AWS spend by 25% (>$30K annual savings).

I focus on automation, observability, and reliability—implementing Prometheus/Grafana monitoring, Ansible configuration management, and scripting to reduce MTTR, deployment time, and manual effort while improving deployment frequency and system availability.
