About

Download PDF Resume

I'm a DevOps Engineer and Systems Architect with over 15 years of hands-on experience building and maintaining high-availability infrastructure. I focus on practical automation and CI/CD pipelines that actually work.

I've handled everything from migrating legacy monoliths to architecting modern cloud-native setups on AWS and Kubernetes. I prioritize security, automation, and keeping cloud costs under control.
