AWS-focused data engineer with 10+ years building and automating large-scale big-data systems. I design the pipelines that move and process data reliably — batch or streaming — and the cloud platforms they run on.
My core stack is Hadoop, Spark, Hive, and data warehousing, paired with deep AWS expertise and four AWS certifications: Solutions Architect (Associate and Professional), Developer (Associate), and Big Data (Specialty).
How I help clients:
• Design and automate scheduled batch and streaming pipelines end to end, with Python for tooling and glue.
• Lead cloud migrations and integrations — moving existing systems into AWS, or wiring them to it cleanly.
• Ship containerized and streaming workloads on Docker and Kubernetes.
Platform engineering is my specialty. I build internal developer platforms — a clean, self-service overlay on top of cloud and Kubernetes APIs — so your engineers ship faster without fighting the infrastructure underneath.
Tell me what you're building, and I'll help you get it running reliably in the cloud.

Is your team still chasing leads manually, managing key work in spreadsheets, or discovering service problems only after customers complain?
I turn those workflows into reliable web and mobile products. I can own the full delivery: scoping, technical decisions, frontend, backend, APIs, databases, integrations, cloud deployment, launch, and production support.
For 7+ years, I’ve built CRM and multi-branch POS systems, marketplaces serving 500K+ users, React Native apps, monitoring platforms, authentication, and workflow automation across Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand.
Core stack: Laravel, React, React Native, Go, MySQL, REST APIs, AWS/GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD.
You’ll get direct communication, a clear scope, and an engineer who cares whether the product makes the work easier—not just whether the code is finished.

The engineer you call when software, infrastructure, and networking all need to work together.
🚀 Senior DevOps Engineer | Backend Developer | Cloud & Platform Engineer
Most technical problems don't exist in a single layer.
An application is slow, but the root cause is the database. A deployment fails because of infrastructure. An API works locally but breaks in production because of networking. AI features underperform because the data pipeline was designed incorrectly.
My background spans software development, cloud infrastructure, Linux systems, networking, automation, and AI integrations, allowing me to build and troubleshoot systems end-to-end.
Over the last 5+ years, I have worked across AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, CI/CD automation, backend APIs, distributed systems, AI-powered applications, and production environments supporting real business operations.
🎯 What I Can Help With
✅ Backend Development (Node.js, Python, Go, .NET)
✅ Cloud Infrastructure (AWS, GCP)
✅ Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
✅ Kubernetes & Docker Platforms
✅ CI/CD Automation (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins)
✅ Linux Administration & Troubleshooting
✅ Database Design & Optimization
✅ AI & LLM Integrations (OpenAI, RAG, AI Agents)
✅ Monitoring, Observability & Reliability Engineering
✅ Performance Optimization & Cloud Cost Reduction
🔧 Clients Typically Bring Me In For
• Building platforms that require both development and infrastructure expertise
• Solving production issues that span applications, databases, networking, and cloud services
• Modernizing deployment workflows and DevOps practices
• Designing scalable cloud-native architectures
• Integrating AI capabilities into existing products
• Reducing operational complexity and cloud costs
