I help companies cut infrastructure costs 2x by migrating from expensive cloud and SaaS solutions to efficient private cloud environments built on Proxmox and Ceph.
Whether you're paying too much for cloud, struggling with scaling, or dealing with unstable infrastructure - I design and implement systems that are faster, cheaper, and easier to manage.
I work with high-load production environments: clusters with 1000+ VMs, petabyte-scale storage, and fully automated infrastructure.
What I can help you with:
⢠Reduce cloud and infrastructure costs by 50ā80% using Proxmox-based private cloud
⢠Migrate from VMware, AWS, or other platforms to cost-efficient infrastructure
⢠Build and optimize Ceph storage (RBD, CephFS, S3) for performance and reliability
⢠Fix performance issues, instability, or scaling problems in existing clusters
⢠Design HA architecture with backup and disaster recovery
⢠Automate infrastructure using Puppet and provisioning pipelines
Typical problems I solve:
⢠Infrastructure costs are too high and keep growing
⢠Cloud bills are unpredictable
⢠Ceph clusters are slow, unstable, or constantly rebalancing
⢠Proxmox clusters break, failover doesnāt work, or nodes drop
⢠Backup systems are unreliable or too slow
⢠Monitoring systems (Zabbix) overloaded and ineffective
Why clients work with me:
⢠20+ years in enterprise infrastructure
⢠200+ real-world projects (not lab setups)
⢠Experience with large-scale production systems
⢠Focus on measurable results: cost reduction, stability, scalability
Technologies I use:
Proxmox VE, Ceph, Zabbix, Puppet, BGP, VPN, HA clusters, Backup & DR systems
If your infrastructure is getting expensive, slow, or hard to manage ā I can fix it or rebuild it properly.

I work with engineering leaders and CTOs who are scaling fast but fighting the same battles: deployments that take hours, environments that drift, DevOps bottlenecks that block every release, and infrastructure that isn't ready for AI workloads. I eliminate those bottlenecks - permanently.
With 90+ completed projects, $900K+ earned on Upwork, and a 100% Job Success Score, I've led infrastructure transformations across Fintech, Healthcare, E-commerce, and SaaS - delivering measurable outcomes that show up on the P&L, not just in a CI/CD dashboard.

Every hour of downtime costs your enterprise an average of $540,000. That's not a DevOps metric - that's a board-level problem.

Are your deployments slow, breaking at the worst moments, or costing more than they should? Is your team spending hours on manual releases instead of shipping features? If your CI/CD pipelines are fragile, your Azure infrastructure is growing out of control, or your DevOps processes exist only on paper, you are dealing with a problem that will not fix itself.
I am a DevOps Engineer and Azure Architect with 10+ years of experience helping product teams and growing companies build cloud infrastructure that actually works. Whether it is a startup scaling fast or an enterprise team drowning in legacy pipelines, I come in, assess the real state of things, and build systems that are stable, automated, and cost-efficient.
My primary expertise is Microsoft Azure and Azure DevOps, end to end. That means everything from designing multi-stage Azure DevOps pipelines and managing releases without downtime, to setting up Azure DevOps RBAC, securing environments, and integrating Azure DevOps with Kubernetes clusters running on AKS. I have built Azure DevOps workflows for teams of 5 and teams of 150, and the approach scales both ways. Every Azure DevOps implementation I deliver is built around real business goals, not just tooling checkboxes.
Beyond Azure DevOps, I work across the full infrastructure stack. I design Cloud Architecture using Terraform for Infrastructure as Code, manage containerized workloads with Kubernetes and Docker, and implement Deployment Automation that removes human error from the release process. For data-heavy projects, I build pipelines with Azure Data Factory to handle ETL, orchestration, and integration between services.
For teams building decentralized or blockchain-integrated solutions, I have worked with Azure Blockchain Service as part of broader Microsoft Azure infrastructure setups, combining it with the same security and governance standards applied across all environments.
As an Azure Architect, I cover Cloud Computing governance, cost optimization, and FinOps practices, so your Azure bill reflects actual usage, not waste. I apply the same structured thinking to Network Security, Linux and Windows Server environments, and multi-cloud setups when needed.
When projects require Amazon Web Services, I bring the same DevOps standards to AWS, including AWS DevOps pipelines, CI/CD automation, and infrastructure managed through Terraform. I also work with Google Cloud Platform for teams running workloads across multiple providers.
AI Automation is a growing part of what I do. As more teams start integrating AI into their products and workflows, I help them connect those AI components to production infrastructure properly, with reliable pipelines, automated testing, and deployment flows that treat AI workloads the same way as any other service.
I also collaborate closely with full stack developer teams to improve release processes, deployment reliability, and infrastructure scalability, making sure the gap between development and operations is as small as possible.
What clients usually need help with:
ā Stabilizing Azure DevOps pipelines and deployment workflows
ā Building scalable Kubernetes infrastructure
ā Migrating legacy infrastructure to Microsoft Azure
ā Reducing cloud costs and improving DevOps efficiency
ā Designing secure Cloud Architecture for growing products
ā Automating deployments with Terraform and CI/CD
ā Improving monitoring, security, and infrastructure reliability
ā Implementing AI Automation into existing delivery workflows
The full technology range I work with includes: Azure DevOps, Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD, Git, SQL, Python, Linux, Windows Server, Azure Data Factory, Azure Blockchain Service, Cloud Architecture, Deployment Automation, Network Security, and more.
