Over 13 years of experience building, scaling, and optimising cloud platforms, applications, and DevOps systems for startups, mid-size companies, and enterprise environments. I specialise in AWS architecture, Kubernetes/EKS/ECS, CI/CD automation, full-stack engineering, and mobile app development, enabling clients to work with a single senior engineer rather than hiring multiple freelancers. Most clients work with me long-term because I am fast, reliable, and very strong in communication, and I’m known for taking ownership until the problem is fully solved. What I Do Best • Cloud Architecture (AWS/Azure) – secure, scalable, multi-account & multi-region setups • DevOps & Automation – Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD, Terraform, CDK • Backend Engineering – Node.js, TypeScript, Python, PHP, REST, GraphQL • Frontend Development – React, Next.js, HTML/CSS/JS • Mobile Apps – React Native (production-ready apps) • Troubleshooting & Production Fixes – outages, cost spikes, scaling issues • Security & Compliance – IAM, WAF, SSO, VPN, SOC2-ready setups • Cost Optimisation – reduced cloud costs by up to 40% for past clients • Migration & Modernization – monolith → microservices, legacy → cloud Upwork Clients Say • “Great communicator and really good at what he does.” • “Helped explain the Kubernetes world while solving the issues.” • “Completed my server setup quickly and flawlessly.” • “Solved our AWS failure when business was halted.” • “Always proactive, reliable, and goes beyond expectations.” Why Clients Hire Me • I solve problems fast, including urgent production issues • I explain things clearly (non-technical founders love this) • I work independently with minimal hand-holding • I’m comfortable with both short tasks and long-term projects • I can manage the entire stack (Cloud → Backend → Frontend → Mobile) If you need a senior engineer who delivers high-quality results without complexity, I’m ready to help.
