What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

I am an AWS Cloud Engineer with over 6 years of experience specializing in Amazon Web Services (AWS), cloud automation, and DevOps practices. My expertise lies in designing, deploying, and managing scalable and secure cloud infrastructure that drives operational efficiency and business agility. I am passionate about implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC), continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD), and proactive monitoring solutions.

In my recent role as a Senior DevOps Engineer at Shispare, I have honed my skills in managing production-grade container orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes, and I have designed and maintained CI/CD pipelines with tools like GitLab CI/CD and Jenkins. My strong command of Linux systems and proficiency in Python for scripting and automation have enabled me to troubleshoot and optimize performance effectively. I am eager to continuously learn and adopt new technologies in a fast-paced DevOps environment.
