I design reliable AWS and Kubernetes platforms, automate delivery pipelines, and help engineering teams ship faster without compromising security, uptime, or cost control.
Lead DevOps Engineer with 10+ years of experience across infrastructure engineering, cloud architecture, and platform reliability. I specialize in AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD automation, and observability practices that make systems easier to operate. My focus is simple: build secure, repeatable platforms that help teams deploy faster, recover with confidence, and keep cloud operations cost-aware.

A focused selection of cloud, Kubernetes, automation, and reliability work that reflects my hands-on DevOps experience.
Architected and deployed a multi-AZ Amazon EKS platform using Terraform. Built the VPC, public and private subnets, managed node groups, autoscaling, IAM OIDC federation, and core cluster add-ons to standardize Kubernetes environments and reduce manual setup effort.
Automated secure AWS EC2 environments with Terraform. Configured Auto Scaling Groups, Application Load Balancers, target group health checks, and CloudWatch alarms with SNS notifications to improve availability and incident response.
Containerized legacy and new applications with Docker, using multi-stage builds to reduce image size and improve build repeatability. Set up ECR and Docker Hub registries with vulnerability scanning and image lifecycle policies.
Built CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and GitHub Actions for containerized microservices. Added automated testing, Docker multi-stage builds, ECR image scanning, and Helm-based rolling deployments to reduce release effort and improve deployment consistency.
Standardized application deployments on EKS using Helm charts and environment-specific values. Packaged Kubernetes manifests, versioned releases through CI/CD, and supported safer rollouts with health checks and rollback-ready workflows.
Deployed a Kubernetes observability stack with Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki. Built dashboards for infrastructure and application metrics, configured alerting, integrated incident notifications, and centralized logs to improve production visibility.
Designed automated backup and disaster recovery processes for critical workloads. Configured AWS Backup policies, cross-region RDS snapshots, S3 versioning, lifecycle rules, and recovery validation to improve business continuity readiness.
Designed least-privilege IAM patterns across AWS environments. Implemented service roles, audit logging, compliance checks, and Security Hub workflows to strengthen access control and improve cloud security visibility.
Developed reusable Bash and Python automation for routine systems and DevOps tasks, including log rotation, disk usage alerts, user provisioning, SSL certificate renewal, and health reporting with cron and systemd timers.
A practical platform engineering toolkit built from 10+ years in infrastructure and 4+ years focused on DevOps, cloud automation, and Kubernetes delivery.
Designing secure, repeatable AWS environments for application delivery, reliability, and operational visibility.
Operating containerized workloads with clear deployment structure, environment separation, and release consistency.
Building automated pipelines that reduce manual handoffs and make deployments faster, safer, and easier to repeat.
Provisioning consistent environments through reusable Terraform patterns, version control, and reviewable changes.
Improving production visibility through metrics, logs, alerting, and practical incident response workflows.
Bringing a systems and network engineering foundation into cloud security, access control, and automation work.
Available for DevOps, AWS cloud platform, Kubernetes, and automation opportunities.
