I'm a Cloud and AI Architect with 15+ years of enterprise experience, including 4 years at Microsoft on the Azure team where I consulted F500 companies like AT&T, Walmart, and Mastercard on AI, cloud adoption, security, and infrastructure at scale.
I founded TechVora, a small in-office engineering team based in Houston, TX. We work mainly with clients where security, compliance, and uptime are non-negotiable. All engineers work in-house, we never sub out work, which matters when sensitive data is involved.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
I act as the architect on every engagement and don't bill for my time. You get senior-level architecture, design, and oversight built into the cost of your developer.
AI & PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
Over the last two years we've shifted heavily into production AI - we've shipped four enterprise-grade multi-tenant AI applications across legal, accounting, oil & gas, and media, all involving custom LLM pipelines, RAG, and agents handling real sensitive data at scale.
CORE COMPETENCIES
- Cloud Architecture & Migration (Azure, AWS, GCP)
- AI/LLM Integration — RAG, Agents, Multi-tenant Production Apps
- DevSecOps, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep)
- Data Pipelines, Warehousing & ETL
- HIPAA-Compliant Architecture
- Monitoring, Observability & Incident Response
- M365, Azure Security & Compliance
Happy to jump on a quick call - I offer a free strategy session for any new engagement.

If your engineering team is shipping slower than six months ago and your AWS bill is growing faster than your revenue the problem is almost never the engineers. It's the infrastructure they're working around. I fix that at the architecture level, not the band-aid level.
I'm a Top Rated DevOps and Cloud Security Engineer (100% JSS) who has worked with Series A–C SaaS companies, high-volume e-commerce platforms, and regulated fintech environments across AWS, Oracle, and Azure.
Recent engagements:
✔ Reduced deployment time from 4 hours to 85 minutes (65% faster) for a SaaS platform at 500k MAU
✔ Cut AWS spend by 40% ($18k/month saved) for a $30M ARR e-commerce company through E KS right-sizing, spot instance migration, and auto-scaling architecture.
✔ Maintained 99.98% uptime for a Series B fintech platform processing $2M+/day — through Prometheus + Grafana alerting, SLO definition, and proactive SRE incident runbooks.
Here's the infrastructure automation and cloud engineering work I do best:
✔ CI/CD & Automation : Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI. From commit to production in minutes, not hours.
✔ Kubernetes & Container Orchestration : Docker, K8s cluster setup, scaling, and hardening on AWS EKS, GKE, and AKS.
✔ Infrastructure as Code : Terraform and Ansible. Reproducible, version-controlled infra from day one.
✔ Cloud Security & DevSecOps : Threat modelling, IAM hardening, EBS encryption, VPN, and SSL/TLS across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
✔ Observability : Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack. You see problems before your users do.
I don't just implement what's asked. I assess whether what's asked is the right solution. When Terraform is overkill, I'll say so. When Kubernetes is being used where Docker Swarm would serve better, I'll tell you before you spend three months over-engineering it. My value is in the decisions that don't make it into the ticket not just the ones that do.
I take on 2–3 engagements at a time and I'm selective about fit. If you're dealing with infrastructure that's becoming a ceiling on your growth share your architecture overview or describe the problem. I'll come back with a direct technical perspective within one business day. If it's not something I can solve well, I'll tell you that too.
💬 Send me a message with your stack AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, or Linux and your biggest DevOps or cloud security challenge. I'll respond within 2 hours with a direct technical assessment. No sales pitch, no discovery call needed.

Cloud Security & DevSecOps Engineer for teams running on AWS, Azure, GCP, BigQuery, ETL, and CI/CD.
I help teams secure cloud infrastructure, data pipelines, and deployment workflows without slowing engineering down. That includes IAM, Entra ID, vulnerability assessment, security analysis, CI/CD hardening, DevSecOps, and information security work across the full environment.
Most clients come to me when things already feel messy. Access is too open, cloud infrastructure has grown without clear security rules, CI/CD is moving fast without enough guardrails, and nobody is fully sure where the real risk is.
That is exactly why they hire me.
I do not just point out issues. I work on the actual infrastructure, access model, cloud setup, and delivery flow so your team can reduce risk, stay organized, and keep shipping with more confidence.
𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙨 𝙄 𝙊𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧:
𝟭. Cloud Security Reviews: I review cloud infrastructure, identity, networking, permissions, workloads, and data flows to find real security gaps and give clear priorities.
𝟮. DevSecOps & CI/CD Security: I secure CI/CD workflows so teams can build, test, and deploy with better controls, fewer mistakes, and less production risk.
𝟯. IAM & Entra ID Hardening: I improve IAM, Entra ID, roles, permissions, least privilege, and access design so the right people get the right access without unnecessary exposure.
𝟰. Vulnerability Assessment: I run vulnerability assessment work, validate findings, remove noise, and help your team focus on what actually matters.
𝟱. Security Analysis: I break down risks in plain English so leadership, engineering, and operations can understand what is wrong, what matters most, and what to fix first.
𝟲. Cloud Infrastructure Security: I help secure infrastructure in AWS, Azure, and GCP, including compute, networking, storage, identity, and deployment patterns.
𝟳. Data Engineering & ETL Security: I support secure ETL flows, BigQuery environments, and data architecture decisions where access, movement, storage, and control of data matter.
𝟴. Information Security Support: I help teams improve their information security setup with practical controls, documentation, clearer ownership, and cleaner processes.
𝟵. Quality Assurance for Security Changes: After fixes are made, I verify that the changes actually work and that the environment is more secure, stable, and easier to manage.
𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙄 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝:
🔹 Securing AWS, Azure, and GCP environments without slowing down delivery
🔹 Hardening IAM, Entra ID, permissions, and access controls
🔹 Improving CI/CD security and building cleaner DevSecOps workflows
🔹 Running vulnerability assessment and turning findings into real fixes
🔹 Securing ETL pipelines, BigQuery environments, and data infrastructure
🔹 Helping engineering teams understand and reduce cloud security risk
🔹 Cleaning up weak infrastructure and making it easier to maintain over time
🔹 Supporting information security work with practical implementation, not theory
𝙄 𝙖𝙢 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙩 𝙖𝙩:
𝟭. Cloud Security, CI/CD Security, CyberSecurity, Information Security, DevSecOps
𝟮. Azure, AWS, and GCP, Docker, Kubernetes
𝟯. Vulnerability Assessment, Cloud Infrastructure, Security Analysis
𝟰. Azure, AWS, and GCP, Docker, Python
𝟱. BigQuery, ETL, and Data Engineering
𝟲. IAM, Entra ID, SOC, SOC2, ICO
