WANDE ONIGBANJO
@wandeonigbanjo
I build secure, scalable cloud platforms and automate Kubernetes deployments.
What I'm looking for
At United Airlines, I automate secure Kubernetes delivery at scale, including Python and REST API automation that deployed more than 2,000 applications to Kubernetes clusters. I also built AWS architectures that cut provisioning time by 30%, reduced Tableau reporting time by over 40%, and enabled automated remediation across 56 AWS accounts.
I've integrated SAST, DAST, and SCA with Veracode into CI/CD pipelines, deployed SIEM capabilities with GuardDuty, CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs, Microsoft Sentinel, and SQS, and applied Harness Cloud Cost Management to optimize AWS spending. My work spans AWS, GCP, and Azure, with a focus on secure connectivity, governance, observability, and reliable platform operations.
Previously at Capgemini Government Solutions and Sevatec, I built reusable infrastructure modules with Terraform, Terragrunt, and CDK; managed GKE and AKS clusters; and strengthened multi-account security with Control Tower, SCPs, Sentinel, and Kyverno. I also mentored more than 60 engineers on CI/CD, Git workflows, 12-factor application practices, and documentation.
Across earlier cloud engineering and Linux administration roles, I've delivered serverless applications, data pipelines, hardened images, production monitoring, automated deployments, and high-availability infrastructure. I'm an AWS Solutions Architect Professional and Certified Kubernetes Administrator focused on scalable, secure, cost-effective platforms that accelerate business outcomes.
