If your cloud infrastructure is becoming expensive, insecure, or difficult to scale I can help you fix it and future-proof it. I’m a DevOps and Cloud Security engineer with 7+ years of hands-on experience working with startups and multinational companies across the US, UK, and UAE. I design and implement secure, scalable, and cost-efficient cloud environments across AWS, Azure, GCP, and DigitalOcean. Here’s how I help my clients: **DevOps Engineering (AWS, Azure, GCP, DigitalOcean):** I build and optimize CI/CD pipelines, automate infrastructure using Terraform, and implement Kubernetes-based deployments to ensure fast, reliable releases. **Cloud Security:** I design and manage end-to-end deployment workflows, build and optimize secure CI/CD pipelines, and automate infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation). I implement Kubernetes-based deployments and orchestration, integrate CI/CD security practices (SAST, DAST, container scanning), and set up automated notifications and alerting to ensure fast, reliable, and controlled releases with zero downtime. **Cloud Migrations:** I execute end-to-end cloud migrations across AWS, Azure, GCP, DigitalOcean, and Linode. I also specialize in moving workloads from AI-builder platforms like Replit, Anything, and Kimi to secure, production-ready cloud environments. **Compliance & Audit Readiness:** I prepare organizations for SOC 2 Type I & II, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR, both manually and using platforms like Vanta and Drata overing policies, controls, and technical implementation. **Cloud Cost Optimization:** I optimize cloud costs by identifying waste and right-sizing resources. Proven results include up to 50% cost reduction with no compromise on performance, scalability, reliability and security. **Monitoring & Observability:** I implement end-to-end monitoring and observability using Prometheus, Grafana, New Relic, ELK Stack, and Splunk. With custom alerting, I ensure issues are detected and resolved before they impact users. I don’t just deploy tools I design and build secure, scalable, and production-ready systems engineered for reliability, compliance, and long-term growth. My approach focuses on minimizing operational risk, strengthening security, and giving you complete visibility and control over your infrastructure from day one. Whether you need support with DevOps, cloud architecture, security hardening, infrastructure migration, CI/CD, or compliance initiatives, I’d be happy to discuss how I can help drive your project forward. **Tools & Technologies:** - Public Clouds: AWS, Azure, GCP - AWS: EC2, RDS, Code Pipeline, S3, System Manager, VPC, IAM, Route 53, SQS, EKS, Secrets Manager, WAF, ECS, Config, SNS, Security Hub, Inspector, Guard Duty, EC2 Image Builder, EKS, Amplify, Elastic Beanstalk - GCP: VPC,GKE, CloudRun, CloudArmor, Load Balancer, Bucket, Redis, Domain, Certificate Manager - Azure: VNet, Virtual Machine, Azure DevOps, Azure Foundry, Azure Open Air Search, App Service - OS Platforms: Debian based linux systems and Windows Server - SCM/Version control: GitHub, CodeCommit - CI Tools: Jenkins, CodePipelines - Containerization & Orchestrations: Docker, ECS, Kubernetes - Monitoring: Sensu, Uptime Robot, Data Dog - IaaC: Terraform - Database: RDS (Postgres/MSSQL) - Programming & Scripting: Bash, Python - Security Compliance: SOC (I & II), HIPAA - XDR Platform: Sentinelone, Trend Micro Deep Security - CSPM: Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, Microsoft Defender for Cloud - SAST Platforms: Sonarqube, Snyk, veracode - Container Scan: Accuknox, Trivy, Snyk Container - DAST Platforms: OWASP Zap, Stackhawk - Security Tooling: Prowler, Scoutsuite, Nmap, Scapy, Metasploit, Burp Suite, Nessus, WireShark, WPScanner, Sqlmap, OWASP ZAP

Is your AWS bill climbing to $30K+/month with database throttling or mysterious orphaned resources costing thousands? Is your production platform stuck on legacy VPS infrastructure while every migration quote is $50K+ and 3 months away? Do you need HIPAA compliance or SOC2 certification because investors are demanding audit readiness before your Series A? If you said yes to at least one of these questions, you are at the right place! Hi! I’m Jaime. AWS Solutions Architect specializing in emergency cost optimization, rapid cloud migrations, and compliance under deadline for SaaS, insurance, fintech, and healthcare companies.

Over 20 years of experience in tech. My most recent work: - ETL to upload Excel Financial Reports, then process and consolidate them into fit for purpose regulatory reports. - IoT Data Ingestion into S3, then process the data using event driven architecture in AWS, finally creating emailed reports to send to users. - SaaS platform that I built and own called Nopaque. Automates the testing of organisations telephony services, by mapping journeys, testing paths and performing function/load tests. - RantClub, a small experiment and fun website to showcase Deepgrams APIs and how they can be used to classify and summarise transcripts. Before this most recent work (last 2 years). I was the Director of Engineering for over 100 staff and remained hands on 'in the moment'. Prior to this, I was a CTO that lead a team of about 60 and had influence over the wider organisation. I participated in multiple MVP builds, two of which eventually went on to become offerings that increased our company value by over 60% before sale. - The first was engineering and delivery of Amazon Connect, with utilities/tools that we could drop in and accelerate adoption of the technology. In this role I worked with 3 large UK banks. - The second was our approach to MLOps - in which we were able to begin the journey for a major UK bank who are now considered one of the leaders in this space. During and prior to this, I was a full time Cloud Architect/Engineer - having held all 5 core AWS exams between 2016 - 2020.
