What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a permanent role with a company that runs its own platform.

At Expert Thinking, I worked inside client teams on live AWS and Azure platforms. For an AWS migration, I wrote a Terraform module using OpenTofu and Terragrunt to install CloudWatch and CheckMK agents, then re-check them every 30 minutes; I tested it on 16 instances and wrote the runbook.

At FedEx, I built and recovered Azure virtual machines and supported patching across more than 1,000 VMs. At Cashflows, I ran releases and took over patching for Windows and Linux EC2 instances on a live payments platform. I’m looking for a permanent role with a company that runs its own platform.
