Most cloud environments don't fail because of bad intentions they fail because reliability, security, and delivery were never engineered together from the start. Over 13 years I have designed and operated cloud platforms for organizations where downtime, misconfigurations, and compliance gaps carry real consequences Bank of America, Fiserv, and the Federal Reserve Board. That experience shaped how I think about every engagement: architecture first, automation always, reliability non-negotiable. Here is where I add measurable value: Cloud Migration & Architecture: Designing resilient, cost-optimized multi-cloud environments across AWS and Azure, built for scale and aligned with business objectives from day one. CI/CD & DevOps Automation: Implementing Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, and pipeline automation that standardizes delivery, eliminates manual bottlenecks, and reduces deployment risk significantly. SRE & Observability: Building monitoring, alerting, and incident response frameworks using Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and ELK that give engineering teams real visibility, not just dashboards. Security & Compliance: Hardening infrastructure against real threats while maintaining PCI-DSS, SOX, and ISO 27001 alignment across regulated and high-growth environments. Whether you are a scaling startup needing a solid foundation or an enterprise team modernizing legacy infrastructure, I bring senior architecture thinking with hands-on execution no handoffs, no gaps.

I've cut AWS bills by 60%, maintained 99.9% uptime across 50-node EKS clusters, and shipped SOC2-compliant infrastructure for FinTech and SaaS companies - across 6+ years of hands-on cloud engineering. Whether you're a startup drowning in cloud costs, a SaaS company outgrowing your Kubernetes setup, or an enterprise navigating a SOC2 or GDPR audit - I've solved that exact problem, with numbers to back it. ▸ Kubernetes & EKS Architecture I design production-grade EKS clusters built to scale multi-AZ, auto-scaling with Karpenter, Spot Instance optimized, and GitOps-driven deployment pipelines. I've supported engineering teams of 10–50 engineers with infrastructure that doesn't create 2am incidents. ▸ FinOps & Cloud Cost Engineering I don't just trim costs I restructure how cloud spend works. Slashed cluster compute costs 60% via Karpenter + EC2 Spot strategy. Reduced CI/CD infrastructure costs 35% by migrating Jenkins pipelines to GitHub Actions. ▸ DevSecOps & Compliance Built GDPR and SOC2 Type II compliant infrastructure from scratch Zero-Trust IAM, AWS WAF, automated secrets rotation, CloudTrail audit logging, and compliance documentation. Experienced with HIPAA and PCI-DSS-ready architectures for FinTech clients. ▸ Observability & Reliability Full monitoring stacks with Prometheus, Thanos, Loki, and Grafana SLO dashboards, alerting runbooks, and incident response playbooks. I build for 99.9%+ uptime, not hope for it. Certified: AWS DevOps Engineer – Professional | AWS Solutions Architect – Associate | HashiCorp Terraform Associate (003) I work best with teams that want infrastructure they can trust clean IaC, documented runbooks, and systems built to last. Available for long-term platform engineering partnerships, DevOps retainers, and project-based engagements. Message me and we'll spend 15 minutes figuring out whether I'm the right fit for your infrastructure.

Your infrastructure should run itself, I make that happen. I'm a DevOps and cloud infrastructure engineer with 15+ years of hands-on experience, including 8+ years focused entirely on modern cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) and Kubernetes-native architectures. What I typically deliver for clients: • CI/CD pipelines that cut deployment time from days to minutes • Kubernetes (K8s) clusters that are cost-optimized, secure, and self-healing • Cloud migrations with zero critical downtime • Observability stacks (Prometheus + Grafana + ELK) that catch issues before users do • Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform and Ansible so nothing is manual I've worked across fintech, telecom, healthcare, enterprise, and government environments, sectors where reliability and compliance aren't optional. If your team is dealing with unreliable deployments, cloud cost overruns, or fragile infrastructure that needs a human to babysit it that's exactly what I fix. Message me and let's talk through your setup.

I'm a Cloud and AI Architect with 15+ years of enterprise experience, including 4 years at Microsoft on the Azure team where I consulted F500 companies like AT&T, Walmart, and Mastercard on AI, cloud adoption, security, and infrastructure at scale. I founded TechVora, a small in-office engineering team based in Houston, TX. We work mainly with clients where security, compliance, and uptime are non-negotiable. All engineers work in-house, we never sub out work, which matters when sensitive data is involved. WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT I act as the architect on every engagement and don't bill for my time. You get senior-level architecture, design, and oversight built into the cost of your developer. AI & PRODUCTION SYSTEMS Over the last two years we've shifted heavily into production AI - we've shipped four enterprise-grade multi-tenant AI applications across legal, accounting, oil & gas, and media, all involving custom LLM pipelines, RAG, and agents handling real sensitive data at scale. CORE COMPETENCIES - Cloud Architecture & Migration (Azure, AWS, GCP) - AI/LLM Integration — RAG, Agents, Multi-tenant Production Apps - DevSecOps, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep) - Data Pipelines, Warehousing & ETL - HIPAA-Compliant Architecture - Monitoring, Observability & Incident Response - M365, Azure Security & Compliance Happy to jump on a quick call - I offer a free strategy session for any new engagement.
