I’m an DevOps Engineer specializing in LLMOps, MLOps, DevOps, and AI deployment.
I help startups and businesses deploy AI applications into real production environments using modern cloud and automation practices. My experience includes Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, CI/CD, Linux server administration, infrastructure automation, monitoring, and backend integration for scalable AI systems.
I work best on projects where clients need more than a prototype, they need an AI system that can be deployed properly, monitored, maintained, and scaled with confidence.
My services include:
> LLMOps and MLOps setup
> AI model and application deployment
> Docker and Kubernetes environments
> AWS infrastructure and cloud automation
> CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions
> Linux server setup, hardening, and maintenance
> Backend APIs and AI system integration
> Monitoring, logging, and troubleshooting.
I have worked on production systems supporting enterprise and government-related environments, where reliability, security, and maintainability are critical. I focus on clean implementation, structured automation, and clear documentation so systems remain manageable after delivery.
If you are looking for someone who can help you deploy AI solutions reliably and support them with solid DevOps and cloud infrastructure, I’d be happy to help.

Do you know that many companies struggle with unstable CI/CD pipelines, poor cloud architecture, and infrastructure that doesn't scale? These issues don’t just affect systems—they affect user experience and revenue.
If your deployments are taking too long, your cloud bill keeps increasing without a clear reason, or your application goes down when traffic increases—that's a problem.
If that sounds familiar, we might be a good fit.
Think of your cloud infrastructure like the "Strait of Hormuz". If it gets blocked, everything stops.
I help companies keep that route open because I have 6 years of hands-on experience working with cloud technologies. Over the years, I’ve helped teams move workloads from manual deployments to fully automated CI/CD pipelines, migrate applications to Kubernetes, and reduce cloud costs through proper architectural design.
The focus is simple: build infrastructure that is stable, secure, scalable, and cost-efficient.
Whether you're launching a SaaS product, scaling your startup, or managing an enterprise team, and you are looking for someone who understands both the technical side and the business impact of infrastructure decisions, feel free to reach out and share what you’re working on.

Frequently Asked Questions:
✔ How quickly can you set up or improve my infrastructure?
I can design and deploy a solid cloud foundation within days, not weeks.
✔ Can you optimize my existing cloud setup instead of rebuilding everything?
Yes. I review your current setup first and improve what already works.
✔ How do you reduce cloud costs without affecting performance?
By analyzing usage, scaling policies, and architecture to remove unnecessary spending.

I build and secure cloud infrastructure for fintechs, banks, and SaaS companies - the kind of environments where downtime isn't an option and compliance audits happen regularly.
Currently lead DevSecOps engineer for a SAMA-regulated fintech in the Middle East, where I've taken the platform from a clean-sheet GCP design through to production: fully private VPC, Terraform IaC, GitHub Actions CI/CD with security gates, Splunk SIEM, and SAMA Cyber Security Framework compliance pushed from Level 2 to Level 3.
What I do well:
Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, OPA/Conftest)
Kubernetes and container orchestration - CKA-certified
CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitLab CI
Multi-cloud across AWS, GCP, and Azure
Cloud security: SIEM (Splunk), WAF, vulnerability management, SAST/DAST, compliance frameworks
Cloud migrations: Azure DevOps to GitHub Enterprise, manual AWS to Terraform IaC
Recent outcomes:
Drove SAMA Cyber Security Framework compliance from Level 2 to Level 3
Migrated approximately 70 enterprise repositories with zero downtime for an international NGO
Saved approximately $280k per year in AWS costs through FinOps automation for a Tier-1 bank
Cut deployment cycles from weeks to days at a Middle East banking client (70% faster)
Hit 99.99% uptime on a healthcare SaaS platform on Azure AKS
Certifications:
Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)
AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional
AWS Certified Developer - Associate
HashiCorp Terraform Associate
Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer
Microsoft Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ-400)
Microsoft Security Operations Analyst (SC-200)
GitLab Certified Associate
I've worked across banks, telecoms, healthcare SaaS, fintech startups, and government clients in the Middle East and beyond. I'm at my best in environments where security and reliability are non-negotiable.
If you need someone who can own your infrastructure end-to-end - not just follow instructions - let's talk.

If your infrastructure is holding your team back — slow deployments, security
gaps, compliance pressure, or runaway costs — I fix it end to end.
I'm a Senior DevOps & SRE Engineer with 7+ years of hands-on experience building
and operating production cloud infrastructure for SaaS, fintech, and healthtech
companies.
I don't just advise. I implement — Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines,
security hardening, cost optimization — and I own the outcome.
─────────────────────────────────────
🏆 WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE ME
─────────────────────────────────────
- Top Rated Plus — Top 1% on Upwork
- 100% Job Success Score | $100K+ earned
- 45+ completed contracts across SaaS, fintech, healthtech
- Led SOC 2 compliance programmes end-to-end at two Toronto companies
- Trusted by founders, CTOs, and engineering teams across North America
─────────────────────────────────────
🚀 WHAT I DO
─────────────────────────────────────
Cloud Infrastructure & AWS Architecture
Production-grade AWS environments built right the first time — VPCs, EKS,
ECS, RDS, Lambda, API Gateway, CloudFront. High availability, fault tolerance,
and security baked in from day one. I've designed and operated systems handling
millions of requests for funded startups and scale-ups.
Kubernetes & Container Platforms
EKS cluster design, Helm, ArgoCD, GitOps workflows, RBAC, network policies,
pod security, Falco for runtime security, and full observability. Real
production Kubernetes — not tutorial-level work.
CI/CD & DevOps Automation
GitHub Actions, Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline — automated build, test, and deploy
pipelines that reduce deployment risk and free your team to ship faster.
Zero-downtime blue/green and canary deployments included.
Infrastructure as Code
Modular, reusable Terraform across multi-account AWS environments.
CloudFormation, Pulumi, Ansible. Fully reproducible, auditable infrastructure
that your team can actually maintain.
Security & Compliance (SOC 2 / HIPAA)
I've led SOC 2 Type 1 and HIPAA technical implementation at regulated companies
— not just as a GRC consultant writing policies, but as the engineer who implemented
the controls: IAM hardening, GuardDuty, Security Hub, CloudTrail, KMS
encryption, Vanta/Drata setup, and evidence pipelines. If compliance is
blocking your next enterprise deal, I've done this before.
Cost Optimization
Reduced AWS spend by 30–60% across multiple client environments through
Reserved Instance strategy, right-sizing, Savings Plans, and architectural
improvements. I find the waste and fix it — with proof.
SRE & Production Reliability
Monitoring, alerting, incident response, SLOs, and error budgets.
Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, ELK. I've worked in production SRE roles
and know what "on-call ready" infrastructure actually looks like.
─────────────────────────────────────
📊 RESULTS THAT MATTER
─────────────────────────────────────
- Reduced cloud costs 30–60% across multiple AWS environments
- Led end-to-end SOC 2 compliance at two separate companies from
gap assessment through audit
- Built HIPAA-compliant AWS infrastructure for a US healthtech startup
- Designed and operated EKS platforms supporting production SaaS workloads
- Migrated legacy infrastructure to fully automated, IaC-managed environments
- Built CI/CD pipelines that cut deployment time and eliminated manual steps
