As a DevOps Engineer at Momentum Metropolitan Holdings Limited, I manage and grow the architecture and microservices of software systems in a risk-averse environment, using and improving the monitoring and security of these systems over the last two years. I work with Python and Java frameworks, as well as various AWS services, to deliver scalable and reliable solutions for the company's needs.

I have over five years of experience in full-stack software development and four years experience in the DevOps space, having worked on several projects at SovTech as a Full Stack Engineer and a Technical Lead. I have developed skills in Node, React, Strapi, Prisma, Next.js, and Docker, among others, and have communicated and collaborated with clients and teams across different segments and domains. I am passionate about innovation and learning new technologies, and I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. I am always looking for opportunities to connect and work with other professionals in the tech industry.
