Hire the Best DevOps Engineers
in Bulgaria

PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY Your infrastructure is either costing too much, breaking too often, or both. I fix that. 20 years in Linux, 12 in AWS production environments. I work as an external senior DevOps partner for international startups and scale-ups — without the overhead of a full-time hire. Hands-on experience with containerized workloads and Kubernetes-based environments, building scalable, highly available, and cost-efficient production systems, including rolling deployments, scaling strategies, and operational troubleshooting. Proven experience managing complex Laravel, WordPress, WooCommerce, and Magento platforms at scale, including high-traffic workloads, large datasets, legacy systems, and critical production incidents. Acts as an external “DevOps on Duty” partner, providing senior-level infrastructure expertise without the need for full-time hiring. ⸻ RATES Kubernetes / EKS & high-availability setups: $70/hr Cloud scaling, high-availability & performance optimization: $60/hr AWS cloud services (EC2, RDS, S3, VPC, IAM, CloudFront ): $55/hr Instance & server management (EC2, VPS, Linux): $50/hr ** Regular hourly rate: $55/hr ** What I help with: ✅ AWS cost reduction and performance optimization ✅ Kubernetes and EKS production support ✅ Cloud infrastructure stability and monitoring ✅ DevOps on Duty and ongoing maintenance ⸻ TECHNICAL EXPERTISE Cloud & Infrastructure - AWS: EC2 (auto-scaling, launch templates), RDS & Aurora MySQL (performance tuning, replication, failover), S3 (lifecycle policies), CloudFront (origin optimization), Route53 (DNS & health checks), IAM (least-privilege access) - Cloud VPS & bare-metal providers: DigitalOcean, Hetzner, OVH, Vultr, Linode - Design and operation of highly available (HA) and fault-tolerant architectures - Capacity planning, horizontal and vertical scaling strategies - Cost optimization, resource right-sizing, and performance tuning - Infrastructure audits, risk assessment, and production readiness reviews - Migration planning between cloud providers and on-prem / bare-metal environments ⸻ Kubernetes & GitOps - Kubernetes for production workloads (managed and self-managed clusters) - High-availability Kubernetes setups (multi-node, multi-AZ where applicable) - Deployment strategies: rolling updates, zero-downtime releases, rollback planning - Horizontal scaling, resource requests/limits, and autoscaling concepts - Ingress configuration, service exposure, and traffic routing - GitOps-based deployments using Argo CD - Troubleshooting pods, nodes, networking, and cluster-level issues ⸻ Monitoring, Metrics & Logging - Prometheus for metrics collection and alerting - Grafana dashboards for infrastructure and application visibility - Centralized logging with ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) - Loki-based log aggregation for containerized workloads - Root cause analysis using logs, metrics, and system-level signals ⸻ Linux & Server Administration - Advanced Linux system administration and system hardening - Kernel, filesystem, I/O, memory, and process-level performance tuning - CPU load analysis, disk bottleneck diagnostics, and network optimization - Backup architectures, snapshot strategies, and disaster recovery planning - Troubleshooting low-level system issues under sustained production load ⸻ Web & Application Stack - Nginx & Apache (event/worker tuning, reverse proxy, SSL/TLS optimization) - PHP-FPM (multi-version environments, legacy PHP support, process tuning) - MySQL / MariaDB / Aurora MySQL (query optimization, indexing strategies, large datasets) - Redis, Memcached, and Varnish (object caching, full-page caching, cache invalidation) - Cloudflare (CDN, WAF, origin shielding, DDoS mitigation, 5xx error handling) ⸻ Containers & Automation - Docker & Docker Compose for development, staging, and production workloads - Containerization of legacy PHP and monolithic applications - Cron workloads, background jobs, and scheduled tasks in containers - CI-friendly, reproducible environments with minimal configuration drift ⸻ Platforms & CMS - Laravel, WordPress & WooCommerce at scale (large catalogs, heavy imports, database bloat) - Magento 1 & Magento 2 (Redis, Varnish, multi-layer caching strategies) - Diagnosis and remediation of performance bottlenecks caused by plugins, themes, and cron jobs - Stability optimization under real production traffic and peak load ⸻ Reliability & Operations - Incident response, post-mortems, and root cause analysis - High-availability planning and failure scenario testing - Proactive monitoring and early detection of capacity issues - Reliability-first operational mindset for business-critical systems __________________ Availability: EU-based (UTC+2) with EU and US timezone overlap. Working style: clear communication, fast response, production-first mindset. Feel free to reach out to discuss your setup or current challenges.
