I'm a Platform Engineer / DevOps Engineer / Site Reliability Engineer with 6+ years of experience building secure, scalable, and cost-efficient cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP. My work has focused on Kubernetes platforms, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, observability, cloud security, and cost optimization across fintech, SaaS, retail, logistics, and enterprise environments.

I'm currently a Systems Engineer at MelodyArc, working on the Home Depot account, where I build and manage enterprise Kubernetes platforms on GCP. My work includes CI/CD pipelines, ingress, DNS, infrastructure automation, and supporting production workloads running at scale.

Previously at Furlenco, I led the DevOps and Data Engineering platform supporting around 80 engineers. Some of the work I'm most proud of includes reducing AWS infrastructure costs from approximately $20K/month to $11K/month, automating infrastructure with Terraform and Helm, implementing IAM database authentication, introducing HashiCorp Vault, and improving deployment reliability across production environments.

Before that, at One2N, I worked as a Site Reliability Engineer focused on platform engineering. I built internal developer platforms using Terraform and Atlantis, migrated observability from Datadog to Grafana and Loki, optimized GCP infrastructure costs by approximately 15%, reduced Airflow infrastructure costs by over $10K annually, and helped recover and stabilize production Kubernetes clusters during critical incidents.

Outside my day job, I'm an AWS Subject Matter Expert (Item Writer & Reviewer) contributing to AWS Certification development. I also completed all 12 AWS Certifications in just 44 days and regularly contribute technical reviews and exam content for AWS Training & Certification.

The thread connecting everything I do is simple: I enjoy taking infrastructure that's expensive, fragile, or difficult to operate and turning it into platforms that are automated, observable, secure, reliable, and boring to run.

I'm primarily looking for Senior Platform Engineering, DevOps, SRE, Cloud Architecture, or Solutions Architecture roles with globally distributed teams.
