About Me
I'm a Senior DevOps & Cloud Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing, implementing, and optimizing cloud infrastructure for enterprise clients. I specialize in building scalable, secure, and cost-efficient solutions using AWS, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure as Code practices.
My experience spans working with Fortune 500 companies like JP Morgan Chase and Mercedes-Benz, where I've led critical infrastructure migrations, reduced cloud costs by up to 50%, and architected high-availability systems handling hundreds of thousands of requests per second.
I'm passionate about automation, continuous improvement, and mentoring teams. Whether it's a complex Terraform migration or implementing GenAI-powered monitoring solutions, I focus on delivering measurable business value.
