About
I’m Ayo Bello, a DevOps and cloud engineering professional focused on building secure, scalable, and highly available Azure-based infrastructure. I design and automate enterprise cloud environments, create reliable CI/CD pipelines, and use Infrastructure as Code to streamline deployments, testing, and monitoring.
Across roles at Knights of Columbus, Data Service Group, and JP Morgan Chase, I’ve worked with containers and Kubernetes, hybrid networking (VPN/ExpressRoute), and observability tools to keep mission-critical systems performing at their best. I also prioritize security and cost optimization—enforcing IAM, encryption, and governance while improving reliability through proactive troubleshooting and disaster recovery planning.
