What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead cloud-native architecture and DevOps initiatives, improve reliability with IaC and observability, and collaborate in agile teams to deliver scalable, secure systems.

I am a results-driven software engineer with over 5 years' experience building and operating cloud-native microservices, containerised applications, and CI/CD pipelines across AWS and Azure.

I have led projects delivering high-availability financial and healthcare platforms, including a Coffee Direct Settlement System processing over USD100 million annually and scalable hospital management solutions.

I focus on aligning IT strategy with business goals, improving reliability through infrastructure as code, observability, and security best practices while driving process optimization and cross-functional collaboration.
