Need infrastructure that actually works at 3 AM without waking you up? That's what I build.
I'm a DevOps and Cloud Engineer with 23 years in IT and two decades of hands-on systems administration. I've spent the last several years deep in AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, and infrastructure automation — helping companies stop firefighting and start scaling.
What I actually do:
I take messy, manual infrastructure and turn it into automated, self-healing systems. Whether you're running on bare metal and dreaming of the cloud, or you're already on AWS but your deployments take hours instead of minutes — I can help.
My technical toolkit:
Cloud & Containers: AWS (EKS, ECS, Lambda, RDS, and pretty much everything else), Kubernetes, Docker, Helm charts (I write custom ones, not just copy-paste)
Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, CloudFormation and Ansible — because clicking around in consoles doesn't scale
CI/CD Pipelines: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, TeamCity. I've built pipelines that deploy 50+ times a day without breaking things
Programming: Python and Golang (7+ years each), plus all the Bash you'd expect
Databases & Networking: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DNS, VPNs, load balancing — the stuff that keeps everything connected
The compliance piece:
Here's something that sets me apart: I've done real HIPAA and SOC 2 work. Not just checking boxes, but actually implementing security controls, preparing for audits, and writing the documentation that satisfies auditors. If you're in healthcare or fintech, you know how valuable this is.
How I work:
I communicate clearly and often. No disappearing for days. I document everything because I know someone else might need to maintain this later (maybe even you). I estimate conservatively and deliver on time.
I've worked with startups figuring out their first AWS setup, mid-size companies migrating off legacy systems, and enterprises untangling years of technical debt. Different scales, same approach: understand the problem first, then build something that lasts.
Let's talk if you need:
- Cloud infrastructure that scales without drama
- CI/CD pipelines that actually speed up your team
- Kubernetes done right (not Kubernetes done complicated)
- Someone who gets compliance requirements

As a Cloud & DevOps Engineer, I help companies build reliable cloud infrastructure, DevOps platforms, infrastructure automation, and highly available systems using AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, and modern security and monitoring practices. Today, I also help teams adopt AI-assisted development tools, including Claude Code and automation agents, in a practical, secure, and production-ready way.
Modern DevOps is no longer only about infrastructure, pipelines, and servers. Teams are now building faster than ever with AI coding assistants, autonomous workflows, and vibe-coding tools. But fast AI-generated prototypes often need expert cloud, DevOps, security, and architecture work before they can become stable production systems.
This is where my 20 years of hands-on IT experience, recognition by Upwork as an Expert-Vetted professional, and being featured in Upwork's Success Stories become real advantages.
I am also the author of The Cloud DevOps Engineer's Guide, where I showcase the proven methodologies I apply to help organizations design, automate, secure, and scale resilient, cloud-native infrastructures.
My core expertise includes:
✔️ Cloud infrastructure on AWS, Azure, GCP, and DigitalOcean.
✔️ Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, and production container deployments.
✔️ Terraform, Ansible, Infrastructure as Code, and environment automation.
✔️ CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and other tools.
✔️ Claude Code, OpenClaw, and AI-assisted development workflow adoption.
✔️ AI-generated and vibe-coded application review, stabilization, deployment, and scaling.
✔️ Large codebase navigation, refactoring support, and development automation.
✔️ AI-assisted test generation, documentation workflows, and code review support.
✔️ Security reviews for code, cloud infrastructure, secrets, permissions, and deployments.
✔️ Custom AI agents for engineering, DevOps, monitoring, and code review workflows.
✔️ 24/7 monitoring, observability, alerting, logging, and incident-response automation.
✔️ DevSecOps, secure pipelines, automated checks, and production hardening.
✔️ Cost optimization, scalability, reliability, and high availability.
✔️ Linux, Bash, Python, networking, databases, distributed systems, and cloud-native architecture.
My experience across AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, CI/CD, monitoring, and security allows me to work not only as a DevOps Engineer but also as an AI-Augmented Platform Engineer, helping teams modernize how they build, deploy, review, secure, and operate software.
Whether you need to modernize your infrastructure, adopt Claude Code, explore OpenClaw-based automation, build custom agents, review an AI-generated codebase, stabilize a vibe-coded application, or deploy, secure, and scale your prototype in the cloud, I can help you move from idea to production with a secure, stable, and scalable setup.

Your cloud bill is not a fixed cost. It's an engineering problem - and I solve it.
Most companies overpay AWS or GCP by 30-70%. The money is hiding in untagged resources, oversized nodes, idle NAT gateways, and architectures that were designed to work - not to scale economically. I find it, I fix it, and I deliver measurable ROI within the first 30 days.
With $900K+ earned on Upwork, 100% Job Success Score, and 19+ years as a CTO and Cloud Architect, I bridge Engineering and Finance - translating infrastructure complexity into business impact your CFO can read.
Typical Problems I Solve
→ AWS or GCP costs are too high and growing month over month
→ No visibility into what's driving cloud spend
→ Need a cloud infrastructure audit before scaling
→ AI workloads are expensive and unpredictable to run
→ Compliance requirements (SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA) creating engineering debt
→ Architecture needs redesign for cost-efficiency before next funding round
Proven Client Results
▪️ Shoebacca (Large US E-commerce)
→ Challenge: AWS costs exceeded budget by 40%, with no tagging, no FinOps governance, and no cost visibility.
→ Solution: EKS rightsizing, NAT/ALB/EBS audit, serverless Lambda migration, full FinOps governance with cost allocation tags.
→ Business Impact: $264,000 annual savings - AWS costs cut by 75% in one week.
▪️ US Influence Platform
→ Challenge: Monthly AWS bill uncontrolled, infrastructure unaudited, site latency degrading.
→ Solution: Infrastructure audit + Terraform migration + reserved instance strategy.
→ Business Impact: Monthly AWS bill reduced by 50%. Site latency improved as a bonus.
▪️ ChilliSauce (UK Event Agency)
→ Challenge: AWS ECS/Fargate costs growing with no optimization strategy.
→ Solution: Continuous FinOps management, ECS rightsizing, Fargate cost controls.
→ Business Impact: 30% cost reduction maintained continuously.
▪️ Datos Health (Israeli HealthTech)
→ Challenge: No monitoring or alerting on GCP infrastructure - production issues discovered by users.
→ Solution: Monitoring and alerting built from scratch with Prometheus and Grafana on GCP.
→ Business Impact: Zero production blind spots. Engineering team now detects issues before users do.
Core Delivery Areas
→ Forensic Cloud Cost Audits - identify immediate 20%+ savings before writing a single line of IaC
→ FinOps in CI/CD - cost guardrails embedded directly in your deployment pipeline, not managed by your finance team
→ AI workload cost optimization - GPU orchestration, vector database cost management, LLM infrastructure efficiency
→ Spot/Reserved Instance Strategy & Orchestration
→ Serverless architectural redesign (Lambda, ECS/Fargate) for cost-efficient scaling
→ DevSecOps: SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA compliance, Zero Trust architecture, IAM hardening
Stack: AWS (EKS, Lambda, EC2, S3, RDS, CloudFront) · GCP · Terraform · Kubernetes · Docker · GitHub Actions · ArgoCD · Prometheus · Grafana · Datadog · Apache Kafka · PostgreSQL · AI workloads
Available during US business hours (EST/PST overlap).
Cloud cost optimization is the highest-ROI DevOps investment in 2026. Send an invite - I'll show you exactly where your cloud budget is leaking.
