I am a results-driven Cloud/DevOps Engineer with hands-on experience designing, implementing, and maintaining cloud-based and on-premises solutions. I excel in DevOps practices, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), containerization, and building robust CI/CD pipelines. I have worked with AWS services (EC2, Lambda, S3, RDS, DynamoDB, API Gateway, CloudFront, IAM, and more), Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, and CloudFormation; I optimize deployments, automate tasks with shell scripting, and implement observability with Prometheus, Grafana, and CloudWatch. I enjoy collaborating with teams to deliver scalable, secure, and reliable infrastructure.
