I deployed a highly available 3-tier AWS web application across three Availability Zones, with an Application Load Balancer, EC2 Auto Scaling, and an Amazon RDS for MySQL backend. I also automated EC2 configuration with Bash and used IAM roles and AWS Secrets Manager for database credential retrieval.

For my EC2 Fleet Health & Auto-Remediation System project, I built a monitoring workflow using CloudWatch, EventBridge, and a Python/Boto3 Lambda function. It uses Systems Manager to reboot instances after status-check failures and restart Apache when stopped, and sends an alert when disk utilization exceeds 85%.

As an IT Support Trainee at Al Shrooq IT Solutions, I supported day-to-day IT support activities and assisted with troubleshooting user and system issues. I also assisted with server setup and basic administration, and checked network connectivity.

I’m a Computer Science graduate with project-based experience in AWS, Linux, Python/Boto3, Bash, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions. I hold the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner certification and am open to junior opportunities across cloud engineering, cloud support, and DevOps.
