Dynamic and results-driven Senior DevOps & Platform Engineer with 12+ years of total IT experience and over 6 years of hands-on DevOps, DevSecOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering leadership. Proven expertise in cloud infrastructure, CI/CD automation, observability, platform reliability, and secure software delivery across large-scale, distributed microservices environments. Exceptional experience designing enterprise-grade CI/CD pipelines, building scalable Kubernetes platforms, implementing IaC with Terraform & Ansible, enhancing platform security, and leading DevOps teams through modernization, automation, and operational excellence. Adept at driving cloud transformations, reducing deployment time, improving system uptime, and aligning engineering practices with business growth. Committed to building resilient, secure, automated platforms that empower engineering teams and accelerate delivery. Operating Principles: Infrastructure as Code first; Solution design at heart; Automation over manual processes; Security by default; Observability before scaling; Blameless incident response. Key Achievements: Built entire IT infrastructure and DevOps platforms from scratch for Excenit and Cape Wesley, covering on-prem, hybrid, and cloud environments, and establishing long-term scalable operating models. Reduced deployment time by 60-80% across multiple organizations by standardizing CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and release workflows. Designed, deployed, and operated high-availability Kubernetes platforms supporting 20+ production microservices, including networking, storage, security, and observability layers. Implemented end-to-end observability (metrics, logs, traces), reducing MTTD by up to 60% and MTTR by 25-40% through proactive alerting and incident automation. Led cloud migrations and infrastructure optimizations, achieving approximately 25% cost savings through right-sizing, autoscaling, and IaC-driven governance. Embedded DevSecOps practices across 30+ projects, including SAST, dependency scanning, secrets management, and policy enforcement within CI/CD pipelines. Defined and enforced production readiness standards (SLOs, SLIs, runbooks, rollback strategies), significantly improving platform reliability and release confidence. Mentored and led DevOps and platform teams, raising overall DevOps maturity, operational discipline, and engineering productivity across organizations.…Dynamic and results-driven Senior DevOps & Platform Engineer with 12+ years of total IT experience and over 6 years of hands-on DevOps, DevSecOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering leadership.
