I am a Cloud & DevOps Engineer with 5+ years of experience in building and managing scalable, secure, and automated infrastructures across AWS, GCP, Azure, and Proxmox. My expertise lies in container orchestration, CI/CD automation, cloud-native development, and infrastructure-as-code, helping organizations achieve faster delivery and improved reliability.

Stop stressing over cloud complexity. I specialize in taking care of intricate infrastructures across Azure, AWS, IBM Cloud, and Hetzner, building resilient and automated environments so you can rest easy knowing your operations are stable, secure, and fully managed. To be honest, most setups are over-engineered. I focus on lean, secure-by-design architectures that actually make sense for your budget. How I help - Azure & Kubernetes: As an Azure Solutions Architect Expert (AZ-305), I architect resilient clusters using AKS, K3s, OpenShift, and bare-metal Kubernetes on Proxmox, with Helm, custom YAML manifests, and GitOps-driven deployments via ArgoCD and Flux. - Infrastructure as Code: I use Terraform, Ansible, and Pulumi to ensure your environments are drift-free and reproducible. I enforce compliance with Tfsec, Terrascan, and Checkov before anything hits production. - Zero-Trust Security: I bake security into the pipeline with automated gates, SonarQube, Snyk, Trivy, and Wazuh, so vulnerabilities are caught at commit time, not in production. - CI/CD Pipelines: I build end-to-end workflows in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Azure Pipelines, and Jenkins that don't just deploy, they scan, validate, and protect your code with every push. - Observability & Alerting: I design full-stack monitoring with Prometheus, Thanos, and Grafana (including custom dashboards and exporters), centralized logging with the ELK Stack, and real-time anomaly detection via Alertmanager and ElastAlert. - Networking & Traffic: I harden and optimize traffic flows using NGINX, HAProxy, and Cloudflare WAF, including DDoS and scraping attack mitigation. - Backends & Data: I work with Python (Django, Flask), Golang, Node.js (Express), and C/C++, backed by PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, Kafka, and RabbitMQ. The Credentials - Expert Certs: Azure Solutions Architect (AZ-305), DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ-400), and GitHub Actions Certified. - Real-World Impact: Currently managing enterprise cloud operations for global clients (Clarins, SNCF, STMicroelectronics) at Atos. - Cloud Leadership: Core Team member at the AWS Cloud Club at 1337 Coding School, partnering directly with AWS Academic Advocacy to mentor engineers in cloud-native architecture, AWS service implementations, and scalable system design, bridging the gap between academic learning and industry-standard cloud engineering. The cool thing is, I don't just set things up and leave, I deliver clear documentation and runbooks so your team can maintain the system with confidence.
