I'm a DevOps / SRE engineer with 5+ years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure. I've managed 100+ Kubernetes clusters, worked across multi-cloud environments, and supported platform teams running 10–50 microservices in production.
My day-to-day spans designing CI/CD strategy, managing cloud infrastructure, writing IaC, and owning observability — from building pipelines from scratch to responding to incidents and improving reliability through SLOs and error budgets.
I care deeply about reducing toil, keeping systems observable, and building infra that teams can trust.
- 🔧 Currently working on: hardening Kubernetes cluster operations & preparing for CKA
- 🌍 Multi-cloud: AWS · GCP · Azure — all three in production
- 📉 SRE practices: SLOs, error budgets, runbooks, blameless postmortems
- 🔁 CI/CD: designing org-wide pipeline standards across teams
