Building Scalable Cloud & Platform Infrastructure
DevOps / Platform Engineer delivering Kubernetes, AWS, and automation solutions for product teams, SaaS platforms, and hybrid environments.
Platform Engineering Focus
End-to-end ownership of infrastructure delivery — from Kubernetes architecture and AWS landing zones to CI/CD, observability, and modernization of legacy systems into reproducible, containerized services.
Cloud & Kubernetes Platforms
Designing AWS and hybrid stacks, running Kubernetes (bare metal & cloud), Helm automation, MetalLB/Traefik ingress, and GitOps workflows for product teams.
Automation & IaC
Infra-as-Code with Terraform, Ansible, and Proxmox; CI/CD using GitHub/GitLab/Drone; AWX/AAP driven deployments that remove manual drift.
Reliability & Security
Observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Uptime Kuma), zero-trust networking, Teleport access, and secure delivery workflows with OTP, VPN, and automation.
DevOps Expertise
Implementing modern DevOps practices with a focus on security, automation, and efficiency.
Cloud & Kubernetes Platforms
Designing hybrid clusters with MetalLB, Traefik, Helm, and GitOps workflows across AWS, Proxmox, and bare-metal footprints.
Automation & IaC
Terraform, Ansible, AWX/AAP, and CI/CD pipelines that codify environments and keep releases reproducible.
Observability & Reliability
Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Uptime Kuma, alerting, and capacity dashboards to reduce MTTR and guide scaling.
Security & Networking
WireGuard/OpenVPN/Tailscale, Teleport access, S3/CloudFront secure delivery, and hardening practices baked into automation.
