Hello!
I'm a Senior DevOps Engineer with 5 stars in Upwork, and a 100% success rate (more than 7,500 worked hours). I love to work as a part of a team communicating in a friendly and constructive way.
I have large experience building high-availability and high-scalability systems for big companies, mostly based on Kubernetes (multi-cluster, multi-region, active/active setups)
I'm using Kubernetes since 2015 (since it reached version 1.0). Most of my experience during recent years is based on EKS clusters, but also deployed Kubernetes in other clouds and on-prem (using K3s and RKE2). I have created the infrastructure from scratch for big companies in Europe and the U.S. (in different sectors like health services, videogames, advertising, data processing, web software, etc).
I follow the GitOps philosophy (my preferred tool is ArgoCD) to deploy multi-cluster applications (where services run in multiple production clusters for maximum availability). This is much better than deploying prod apps in a single cluster. Also, we can use a service mesh to have robust networking.
Also, I take security very seriously. To reduce the attack surface, I only expose prod services to the Internet. The rest of the services (including test apps) are only available using a centralized VPN (deployed in Kubernetes). All internal services use SSO, including access to the clusters by developers (using kubectl or other clients). I can also deploy a policy engine system (like Kyverno) to enforce some security rules. I never use IAM keys, they are not ideal, all access is granted through the use of IRSA roles.
On the development side, I like to use Argo Rollouts to deploy prod versions gradually (using Canary releases). This also reduces the number of users that can be affected by a bug. And of course, we can create several development environments (dev, qa, etc)
On the observability side, I can provide centralized logging, monitoring, tracing, and alerting, using open-source, enterprise-grade solutions (properly integrated).
Another important area is the reduction of costs by creating efficient infrastructure. Normally I try to use ARM instances in all clusters (if possible, depending on the app requirements), performing AWS reservations to save money and using tools like Karpenter to have a higher density in the nodes usage.
I have much more to say, so let's have a meeting.

Need infrastructure that actually works at 3 AM without waking you up? That's what I build.
I'm a DevOps and Cloud Engineer with 23 years in IT and two decades of hands-on systems administration. I've spent the last several years deep in AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, and infrastructure automation — helping companies stop firefighting and start scaling.
What I actually do:
I take messy, manual infrastructure and turn it into automated, self-healing systems. Whether you're running on bare metal and dreaming of the cloud, or you're already on AWS but your deployments take hours instead of minutes — I can help.
My technical toolkit:
Cloud & Containers: AWS (EKS, ECS, Lambda, RDS, and pretty much everything else), Kubernetes, Docker, Helm charts (I write custom ones, not just copy-paste)
Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, CloudFormation and Ansible — because clicking around in consoles doesn't scale
CI/CD Pipelines: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, TeamCity. I've built pipelines that deploy 50+ times a day without breaking things
Programming: Python and Golang (7+ years each), plus all the Bash you'd expect
Databases & Networking: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DNS, VPNs, load balancing — the stuff that keeps everything connected
The compliance piece:
Here's something that sets me apart: I've done real HIPAA and SOC 2 work. Not just checking boxes, but actually implementing security controls, preparing for audits, and writing the documentation that satisfies auditors. If you're in healthcare or fintech, you know how valuable this is.
How I work:
I communicate clearly and often. No disappearing for days. I document everything because I know someone else might need to maintain this later (maybe even you). I estimate conservatively and deliver on time.
I've worked with startups figuring out their first AWS setup, mid-size companies migrating off legacy systems, and enterprises untangling years of technical debt. Different scales, same approach: understand the problem first, then build something that lasts.
Let's talk if you need:
- Cloud infrastructure that scales without drama
- CI/CD pipelines that actually speed up your team
- Kubernetes done right (not Kubernetes done complicated)
- Someone who gets compliance requirements
