I'm a DevOps and Cloud Security engineer who builds infrastructure that passes audits — not just infrastructure that runs. I've delivered compliance-grade cloud platforms three times over — twice right here on Upwork: architected SOC 2 / ISO 27001-compliant infrastructure for a Lithuanian financial payment platform on GCP (secure networking, Istio service mesh, Jenkins CI/CD), and led SOC 2 / ISO 27001-aligned AWS infrastructure for a UK fintech (ECS, CloudFront, RDS, Lambda, GitHub Actions). Before that, I deployed enterprise monitoring (Grafana Enterprise — GET, GEM, GEL) inside a US government cloud at DoD Impact Level 5, where every component met FedRAMP-grade security controls. What I do best: Kubernetes at scale — multi-cluster EKS architecture, Karpenter and KEDA autoscaling, Helm/Helmfile delivery. At Mono I ran the EKS platform behind a marketplace serving 1M+ users at up to 27k RPS. My depth is EKS-native; the security model (RBAC, network policy, workload identity, admission control) transfers directly to GKE, and I've run production GCP infrastructure (Compute Engine, Cloud Run, Istio) — including a multi-tenant platform serving 40+ tenants. Infrastructure as Code — Terraform and Terragrunt as source of truth, including multi-workspace architectures across concurrent projects. Compliance-ready operations — audit-friendly observability (Prometheus, Thanos, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Loki, Tempo), secrets management, secure PostgreSQL on RDS and self-hosted, security patching automation in Python and Bash. CI/CD & GitOps — Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI with self-hosted runners, ArgoCD; multi-environment promotion flows with rollback strategies. If your infrastructure needs to satisfy an auditor, a regulator, or a security review — that's the work I do best. Let's talk.

Most businesses find out they have a security problem the hard way. I make sure that doesn't happen. I'm David, a cybersecurity consultant based in Nairobi, Kenya. I hold certifications from Cisco Networking Academy and IBM SkillsBuild, and I'm an active HackerOne researcher — meaning I test on real, live targets, not just practice labs. What you get: A vulnerability assessment using real tools (Burp Suite, BBOT, Nuclei, Nmap) — not an automated scan pasted into a template with your name on it A report with CVSS v3.1 scoring, CWE classification, business impact analysis, and a prioritized remediation roadmap your developers can actually act on Findings explained in plain language, so your non-technical stakeholders understand exactly what's at risk and what to fix first I work best with small businesses and startups that know security matters but can't justify a full-time hire yet. I'm currently balancing this with full-time study, so I set clear turnaround times upfront — no surprises, no missed deadlines. Message me with your project scope before you hire — I read and respond to every message myself.

At A Glance: Splunk

Big Data is bigger than ever and is relied upon by many businesses to provide the crucial insights on the markets they need to stay ahead of.

Splunk is software tasked with managing the dizzying array of information and allowing professionals to search, manage, and analyze Big Data with an interface similar to the web. Harnessing Big Data is crucial in the modern age, but having a professional who can install, customize, and eliminate bugs within Splunk is even more important so you can use the software to all its potential. A freelancer offers the perfect service, honed to suit the unique scope or budget of your project, so you can receive the exact service you need, when you need it.
