Hello, I'm
Senior Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps Engineer
Architecting resilient cloud platforms across Azure & AWS — infrastructure as code, identity governance, and security-first automation.
I am a Senior Cloud & Systems Engineer specializing in Microsoft Azure, AWS, identity governance, and secure infrastructure automation. I design and manage scalable cloud environments across multiple platforms while enforcing modern security controls, MFA, Conditional Access, and DevOps best practices.
My core responsibilities include building Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform, implementing CI/CD pipelines, managing container workloads with Kubernetes, and optimizing cloud costs without sacrificing performance or security.
I've successfully led multiple migrations — Azure hub-and-spoke networking, AWS VPC deployments, and enterprise identity modernization with Okta and Microsoft Entra ID P2. My passion is simplifying complexity, building resilient platforms, and enabling organizations to move faster and safer in the cloud.
Deployed self-hosted LLMs (Ollama, vLLM) on containerized GPU infrastructure. Integrated Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI APIs into DevOps automation pipelines. Configured multi-model AI agents for infrastructure-as-code generation and incident response. Built secure API gateways with rate limiting, key rotation, and audit logging.
Designed and deployed a secure static website using S3, CloudFront, ACM TLS, OAC, and Route 53. Implemented cache invalidations, security controls, and least-privilege IAM for CI/CD deployment.
Architected an Azure Front Door setup for global routing with backend pools, WAF policies, HTTPS termination, and service health monitoring across multiple environments.
Built reusable Terraform modules to provision AWS VPCs, subnets, security groups, ECS clusters, Azure VNets, Key Vault, and policy-based networking — consistent IaC across environments.
Implemented Conditional Access, MFA enforcement, YubiKey authentication, identity protection, Okta SSO, and risk-based access controls across cloud platforms.
Engineered end-to-end CI/CD pipelines for multi-tenant SaaS products — automated builds, security scanning, and zero-downtime deployments across development, staging, and production. Built self-service infrastructure provisioning with Terraform and Kubernetes, enabling rapid feature delivery with compliance controls. Integrated monitoring, alerting, and auto-scaling for 24/7 operations.
Whether you want to discuss a project, talk about cloud infrastructure, or just say hi — I'd love to hear from you.
