DevOps and Monitoring Engineer focused on observability, automation, and reliable infrastructure for regulated environments.
PortugalWhat I'm looking for
I’m a DevOps and Monitoring Engineer with 2+ years of experience in observability, automation, and infrastructure support across SaaS and regulated financial environments. I’m ITIL v4 Foundation certified, and I bring an operations mindset: automate the busywork, reduce risk during changes, and keep SLAs in view.
In application production support, I reduced team overtime by 15% across a 10-person ops team by building Ansible playbooks for automated data extraction and reporting. I also cut mean time to ticket by ~70% by automating Dynatrace incident creation with Python and Bash, eliminating manual entry entirely, while owning deployment and change-controlled testing cycles in a regulated banking environment.
As a Monitoring Technician / SRE, I improved reliability by reducing MTTD of critical incidents by 20% through alert inventory rationalization and rebuilding Grafana dashboards across Prometheus, New Relic, and PRTG. I automated monitoring configuration and incident response using Python and Bash, supporting Docker and Kubernetes production environments, and I continue to apply GitOps/IaC practices through self-hosted Proxmox homelab automation.
