What I do

I lead DevOps and cloud infrastructure work — architecture, automation, and the platforms teams build on. Deep in AWS, Infrastructure as Code, and CI/CD, with a focus on systems that are scalable, secure, and efficient.

  • Led cloud migration projects, improving performance, security, and cost efficiency
  • Automated infrastructure provisioning, enhancing scalability and reducing manual effort
  • Optimized CI/CD pipelines, accelerating build and deployment processes
  • Designed high-availability architectures, ensuring reliability and operational excellence

Adept at driving DevOps transformations, implementing cloud-native solutions, and working closely with stakeholders. Passionate about automation, containerization, and security-first cloud engineering.
