Struggling with unreliable infrastructure, VMware licensing costs, or a stalled cloud migration? I'm a DevOps & Cloud Engineer who builds and stabilizes production environments across AWS, Azure, Proxmox, and Ceph — with a focus on uptime and automation. Most DevOps engineers specialize in either cloud or on-prem infrastructure. I do both: I've run production Proxmox VE clusters with Ceph storage alongside AWS, Azure, and GCP deployments, and I handle VMware-to-Proxmox migrations end-to-end — a combination few freelancers on Upwork cover with hands-on production experience. Here's how I typically help clients: ✔ Design and deploy cloud infrastructure on AWS, Azure, or GCP ✔ Build and troubleshoot Proxmox clusters, including VMware-to-Proxmox migrations ✔ Optimize and recover Ceph storage clusters ✔ Set up Docker and Kubernetes environments with CI/CD pipelines ✔ Implement monitoring with Zabbix and Grafana ✔ Plan and test backup and disaster recovery strategies ✔ Secure infrastructure with VPNs, firewalls, and Zero Trust practices Top Rated Plus on Upwork with a 4.98 rating across 51 completed jobs and over 2,870 hours worked. AWS Cloud Practitioner Essentials certified. Clients include startups, MSPs, SaaS companies, and enterprise teams relying on me for production-grade infrastructure. Send me a message with what you're working on and I'll respond with next steps within a few hours.

Self-driven DevOps engineer who builds and runs infrastructure that works when it matters. I've spent years working with Kubernetes, OpenShift, and Linux systems in production environments where downtime isn't an option (Banking Sector). I handle the full stack: cluster setup and operations Day0-2, infrastructure automation with Terraform and Ansible, CI/CD pipelines, and production troubleshooting when things break. I work across AWS, Azure, and on-prem environments, and I'm comfortable with both greenfield builds and fixing what's already there. My background includes networking, security hardening, and Linux administration. I've architected and deployed Red Hat platforms like Ansible Automation Platform and Red Hat Satellite. I manage SSL/TLS certificates, configure load balancing, and handle DNS. I've also deployed self-hosted AI infrastructure including vector databases and RAG pipelines on Kubernetes. I write tools in Golang when the situation calls for it. I use monitoring and observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki to catch issues before they become incidents. I've built multi-tenant Kubernetes architectures with proper isolation, configured zero-trust networking with Wireguard, and integrated security scanning into CI/CD pipelines. I hold certifications from Red Hat, AWS, and the Linux Foundation, but what matters more is that I can diagnose problems quickly, communicate clearly, and stay engaged through tough situations. If you are looking for someone who can own infrastructure end-to-end and keep systems stable, let's talk.
