Design and execute automated end-to-end infrastructure workflows using Terraform and Ansible to provision production-grade Kubernetes clusters from scratch, including networking, RBAC, and storage configurations. Build secure CI/CD pipelines with Bitbucket/Bamboo and GitLab CI for microservices and containerized AI/ML application delivery.

Develop Bash automation for host and pod monitoring, log cleanup, CPU and memory limit tuning, and disk-space optimization across cluster nodes. Enforce Agile processes through JIRA, create detailed onboarding documentation, conduct technical demonstrations, and integrate Wazuh, Suricata, TheHive, and ELK Stack to improve SOC visibility and reduce false positives.

Managed enterprise client infrastructure and virtualization platforms, including bare-metal systems and VMware environments, while ensuring SLA compliance, availability, and reliable platform operations.

Automated maintenance and health-check tasks with Bash scripts for disk degradation, memory leaks, and centralized log forwarding. Implemented Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK monitoring suites for alerting, tracing, and capacity forecasting, and delivered operational runbooks and onboarding workshops for distributed engineering teams.

Upgraded Aramco OpenShift clusters from version 4.8 to 4.10 through deep troubleshooting and zero-downtime execution. Produced complete technical documentation to support upgrade procedures and operational continuity.

Orchestrated multi-tier application deployments using Docker and Kubernetes with Jenkins CI/CD pipelines incorporating static code analysis and SAST/DAST security scans. Automated hybrid-server configuration management with Ansible and Bash, established security baselines, and tracked incidents, deployments, and sprint activity in JIRA.

Configured enterprise network filtering rules, pfSense VPN tunnels, and OSSEC-HIDS intrusion-detection capabilities to strengthen system and network security.

Built Prometheus and Grafana dashboards for real-time visibility into host CPU, memory consumption, and network traffic. Authored system setup guides and security baseline documentation to support consistent operational practices.

Designed and delivered a 14-module technical curriculum covering Docker, Kubernetes architecture, CKA and CKS exam preparation, CI/CD, and GitOps practices.

Mentored more than 300 engineers and IT professionals through hands-on laboratories, cluster provisioning exercises, and real-world Kubernetes troubleshooting scenarios.

Engineering degree focused on networks and telecommunications.
