I don't just manage cloud infrastructure; I solve business challenges with it. My focus is on building systems that are not only technically sound but also strategically impactful—delivering uptime, performance, and cost-efficiency. My core expertise, backed by my AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate credential, lies in designing fault-tolerant AWS and Kubernetes environments that achieve 99.99% uptime, optimizing CI/CD pipelines to slash deployment times by 40%, and implementing robust observability to cut incident resolution by 35%. I've architected microservices handling millions of requests and consistently reduced cloud spend by 25% through thoughtful architecture. If you need a coachable engineer who starts with your problem, not a preset tool. Let's connect and build something that matters.
