Your infrastructure breaks at 2 AM. Your deploys take 45 minutes. Your AWS bill climbed 40% and nobody can explain why. I fix all three - and I've done it 100+ times on this platform. Former SRE Lead at Yellow AI (100M+ users, AWS + on-prem). Now I run Skybyte, a DevOps and cloud consulting practice focused on startups and mid-market teams that need senior infrastructure work without the senior hire. What 61+ Upwork jobs and a 100% Job Success Score actually look like: Cloud cost optimization - cut AWS/Azure/GCP spend by 40-60% through right-sizing, Reserved Instances, spot fleets, and architecture cleanup. Not guesswork; I run the cost audit, build the dashboard, and hand you the savings. Kubernetes migration and management - moved production workloads to EKS, AKS, and self-managed clusters on Hetzner. Helm charts, ArgoCD GitOps, zero-downtime cutovers. I've handled clusters running 200+ pods and clusters running 6. CI/CD pipeline engineering - GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps Pipelines, Bitbucket Pipelines. Took teams from 45-minute manual deploys to sub-5-minute automated releases with rollback built in. Infrastructure as Code with Terraform - full AWS, Azure, and GCP environments defined in Terraform modules. State management, drift detection, and PR-based infrastructure reviews that your team can maintain without me. DevSecOps and compliance - SOC 2 infrastructure from scratch, cloud security audits, Cloudflare WAF and DDoS protection, network security architecture, and DPDP-aligned data handling. I've built the controls and written the documentation auditors actually accept. Monitoring, observability, and SRE - Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Datadog, PagerDuty. Full observability stacks that catch failures before your users file tickets. I set up SLOs, runbooks, and on-call workflows. Beyond core DevOps - SSO/SAML integration, n8n workflow automation, MLOps pipelines, Docker deployments on bare metal and VPS, GCP Cloud Run serverless, and technical documentation your team won't ignore. I work best with funded startups burning money on cloud, engineering teams stuck in deployment hell, and companies scaling past the point where one developer can manage the infrastructure part-time. Stack: AWS (EKS, EC2, Lambda, RDS, S3) · Azure (AKS, DevOps, AD) · GCP (GKE, Cloud Run) · Kubernetes · Helm · Terraform · Docker · GitHub Actions · GitLab CI · ArgoCD · Prometheus · Grafana · OpenTelemetry · Datadog · Cloudflare · n8n Not a "set it up and disappear" contractor. I document everything, train your team, and build systems designed to run without me and scale.

I help AI startups and SaaS teams move AI systems from prototype to production on AWS and Azure. Most AI products work in a demo but fail when real users, real data, latency, security, cost, and deployment issues come in. My work is focused on fixing that gap. I build and deploy production-ready MLOps, RAG, MCP server, and cloud infrastructure systems using AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, monitoring, and secure backend APIs. What I can help with: AWS and Azure MLOps I deploy ML models, inference APIs, and retraining pipelines using AWS SageMaker, Lambda, API Gateway, ECS, EKS, Azure App Services, Azure Functions, Azure AI Search, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform. RAG and LLM infrastructure I build reliable RAG systems using LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, pgvector, Pinecone, Supabase, OpenSearch, PostgreSQL, and Azure AI Search. I focus on retrieval quality, speed, fallback logic, logging, source traceability, and production stability. MCP servers and AI agent infrastructure I have built an MCP server for a local ERP system so users could interact with their internal business software through an LLM. I can design secure MCP servers that connect AI agents with databases, APIs, ERP systems, cloud resources, and internal tools. Cloud DevOps and CI/CD I build and fix production infrastructure using Terraform, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline, Docker, Kubernetes, CloudWatch, Grafana, Prometheus, Nginx, PostgreSQL, and secure deployment workflows. Recent proof from my work: - Completed a $6,000 Vertex AI Pipeline project using Python/KFP - Deployed a scikit-learn model on AWS SageMaker with API Gateway, Lambda, and a Python tester - Built production RAG pipelines using Supabase pgvector, RunPod, and LLM workflows - Built an MCP server for a local ERP system to expose business actions through an LLM - Set up PostgreSQL and K3s on on-prem servers using Ansible - Migrated 17+ microservices to cloud-native infrastructure - Reduced cloud infrastructure cost by 30% - Improved deployment efficiency by 50% through CI/CD automation - Built AWS ECS/EKS systems with monitoring, auto-recovery, and high availability I am a good fit if you need: - AI or ML model deployment on AWS or Azure - RAG system cleanup, optimization, or production deployment - MCP server development for internal tools or SaaS platforms - CI/CD and cloud infrastructure for AI applications - Kubernetes, Terraform, monitoring, and cost optimization - Production support for broken or half-finished AI/cloud systems I care about business outcomes first: reliable deployments, lower cloud cost, faster releases, safer infrastructure, and AI systems that clients can actually use in production. Available for AWS, Azure, MLOps, RAG, MCP server, DevOps, and production AI infrastructure projects.
