I build secure cloud delivery pipelines and reliable Kubernetes platforms across Azure, AWS, and GCP.
What I'm looking for
At MetLife, I lead 12 engineers building secure Git-based CI/CD pipelines with Azure DevOps, Kubernetes, and Terraform. I standardized deployments for 100+ microservices, achieved 99.99% uptime, reduced release cycles by 60%, and saved $150K annually through infrastructure automation.
Previously at CitiusTech, I built secure Jenkins and Azure DevOps pipelines for 50+ services, enabled zero-downtime deployments, and integrated Prisma Cloud scanning to reduce incidents by 65%. I also improved observability with Prometheus and Grafana, lowering MTTR by 50%.
I bring 6+ years of DevSecOps and cloud engineering experience across Azure, AWS, GCP, and Oracle, focused on shift-left security, GitOps, Terraform, Kubernetes, and resilient cloud operations.
