Hire the Best DevOps Engineers in California

Your last DevOps person left and nobody knows how the infrastructure works. I've spent 8 years fixing exactly that for SaaS companies - Paramount+, LexisNexis, and three active clients right now. Top Rated Plus, 100% Job Success Score. ───── 🔧 I pick up where the last person left off. Your previous engineer quit, left half-finished Terraform and a pipeline migration that never got completed? I've walked into that exact situation at three companies this year. I absorb context fast, finish what they started, and hand your team a platform they can actually operate without me. If that sounds like your situation, send me a message with what's broken. I'll tell you what the fix looks like. 📋 Fixed scope. Clear outcome. 4-6 weeks. You know what you're getting and what it costs before we start. When I'm done, your infrastructure is codified in Terraform, your deployments are automated, and your team has operational documentation good enough that your junior engineers can run it. 30-day support window included after delivery. One client rebuilt their entire platform from zero in 79 minutes because of what I built. Another client raised my rate 40% on their own - I didn't ask. ☁️ AWS, GCP, Azure - whatever your stack needs. Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Linkerd, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps. But you're not hiring me for tool names. You're hiring me so your infrastructure stops being the thing that keeps you up at night and starts being the reason you close enterprise deals. ───── ⭐ Government SaaS (Multi-Tenant Platform) -- Built the entire AKS platform from scratch. Linkerd service mesh enforcing mTLS tenant isolation. ArgoCD GitOps -- onboarding a new tenant is three config files. Full platform rebuild validated at 79 minutes. ⭐ Legal Tech SaaS -- Inherited half-finished Terraform fragments that didn't match what was running. Refactored into clean modules, built cross-cloud DR across GCP and AWS, automated deploys through GitHub Actions. Client raised my rate 40% unprompted. ⭐ Healthcare Finance SaaS -- Embedded after their DevOps engineer quit. 93+ PRs across 25+ repos in 5 months. JSON validation, pipeline migration, centralized templates, README enforcement org-wide. ───── If you've got infrastructure problems piling up and nobody to pick them up - send me a message and let's figure out the fix.

I build production cloud infrastructure and the AI systems that run on it, LLM agents, RAG pipelines, and FastAPI services deployed with Terraform, secured with IAM and secrets management, built to pass HIPAA, SOC 2, and FedRAMP audits from day one. 100% Job Success Score. Solutions Architect with Google Cloud Premier Partner experience. 6 years architecting across AWS, GCP, and Azure platform, DevOps, AI/ML, and security in regulated environments (healthcare, federal, fintech).
