About

Professional summary

I am a Senior DevSecOps Engineer and Cloud Solutions Architect with more than four years of experience across software development, cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, and security automation.

I design and operate secure, highly available cloud platforms across AWS, Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, VMware, and hybrid environments. My work focuses on scalable Kubernetes platforms, infrastructure as code, CI/CD modernization, and production reliability.

I have delivered resilient solutions for banking and fintech organizations, including multi-cloud migrations, security hardening, compliance automation, and cost optimization initiatives. I prioritize least-privilege access, Zero Trust principles, vulnerability management, and continuous security validation.

I build DevSecOps pipelines that integrate automated testing, SAST, DAST, software composition analysis, secrets scanning, container security, and infrastructure validation. I also create observability stacks that improve incident detection, response, and service availability.

I am experienced with Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, Docker, GitLab CI/CD, GitHub Actions, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, and cloud-native services. I enjoy collaborating with development and operations teams to establish shift-left security practices and self-service developer platforms.

I hold certifications across AWS, Azure, CNCF, OCI, and HashiCorp, including CKA, CKAD, AWS DevOps Engineer Professional, and Terraform Associate. I am committed to continuous improvement, secure engineering, and reliable platform delivery.
