I help startups and SMBs build secure, compliant cloud infrastructure without the cost of a full-time CTO or CISO. 15+ years of cloud architecture and security engineering experience across companies like Cisco, General Mills, Home Depot, Collins Aerospace, and other Fortune 500 environments. AWS Certified Solutions Architect. CISSP in progress. I specialize in startups operating in regulated environments: CJIS, FedRAMP, SOC 2, HIPAA, and CMMC. If you need compliance built into your infrastructure from day one rather than bolted on later, that's exactly what I do. How I typically work with startup clients: Embedded as a fractional technical leader, 10-20 hours per week. I join your Slack, attend standups when needed, and own your infrastructure decisions. Minimum 3-month engagement. Recent example: I serve as fractional Lead DevOps Engineer for a CJIS-regulated GovTech startup, where I designed and built their AWS infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and compliance controls from the ground up. What I do for clients: - AWS and Azure cloud architecture design and implementation - Infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation) - CI/CD pipeline setup (GitHub Actions, GitLab) - Security controls and compliance implementation - Network design (VPC, subnets, security groups, IAM) - Monitoring, alerting, and incident response - Architecture decision-making and team mentorship I also offer one-time engagements: - Cloud Infrastructure Buildout: I design and build your entire cloud environment from scratch in 4-8 weeks - Architecture Review: 2-week deep review of your existing infrastructure with a prioritized 90-day remediation plan Tools I work with daily: AWS, Azure, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, n8n, Cloudflare, Linux/Ubuntu. If your startup is building in a space where security and compliance matter, let's talk. I'm selective about engagements and only take on work where I can deliver real value.

Hello, I am Max. And nice to meet you here! 🇺🇦 As a technical IT specialist and DevOps engineer with over 4 years of practical experience, I endeavor to keep my skills with up-to-date instruments and approaches. This is confirmed by a bunch of certificates proving my knowledge of AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform. My goal is to gather knowledge, practical experience and extend the social network. I would be glad to help with the projects that include but are not limited to the following responsibilities: - AWS architecture design and AWS infrastructure setup (either via console or via Terraform); - CI/CD automation: Jenkins, Gitlab, Bitbucket; - Docker images design; - setting up and configuring Kubernetes clusters (either in the cloud or on-premises); - server administration. Looking forward to fruitful cooperation! #StandWithUkraine

A satisfied client is the goal of my work. I'm seasoned engineer with 20+ years of experience configuring, monitoring, upgrading, and sustaining system hardware, software, and supporting infrastructure. Strong analytical mindset with cross-disciplinary troubleshooting skills for complex, system-level issues. Highly motivated, dependable, and accountable for delivering results. Business before pleasure!

I help engineering teams stabilize cloud infrastructure, automate deployments, and keep production systems reliable using AWS, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD automation. Most clients bring me in to fix unstable deployments, unclear infrastructure ownership, slow release cycles, poor monitoring, or cloud environments that have grown difficult to manage. After the initial setup or audit, many retain me long term to support CI/CD pipelines, backend reliability, production operations, and ongoing infrastructure improvements. With over 7 years of hands-on DevOps experience, I work directly on AWS infrastructure, Terraform provisioning, ECS/EKS container deployments, GitHub Actions and Jenkins pipelines, Linux systems, monitoring, automation, and production troubleshooting. My focus is building infrastructure that is secure, observable, cost-aware, and easy for development teams to deploy into — whether supporting a SaaS platform, internal business system, e-commerce application, or data-intensive workload. If you are dealing with failed deployments, unreliable releases, poor visibility, AWS cost concerns, or production stability issues, I can review your current setup and provide practical, measurable improvements. Available for a 30-minute DevOps consultation. I can walk through your current environment, identify risks, and suggest clear next steps. ✅ Core Expertise • Cloud: AWS ECS/Fargate, EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, IAM, CloudWatch, CloudFront • Containers: Docker, Kubernetes, EKS, Helm, autoscaling, self-healing workloads • CI/CD: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline, automated build and release pipelines • Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, modular multi-environment infrastructure, CloudFormation • Systems: Linux administration, shell scripting, Ansible automation • Security & Secrets: AWS SSM, Vault, least-privilege IAM, secure environment management • Observability: CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, alerts, dashboards, log analysis • Networking: VPC design, load balancers, NAT gateways, DNS, SSL, VPN, peering • Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB Atlas, backups, connectivity, security rules ✅ Proven Delivery • Built and supported AWS infrastructure for production applications handling high transaction volume • Reduced release cycles from hours to minutes through automated CI/CD pipelines • Deployed and scaled containerized services for high-traffic production workloads • Implemented rollback, blue/green, and zero-downtime deployment strategies • Improved monitoring, alerting, and production visibility using CloudWatch, Grafana, and log-based diagnostics • Reduced cloud costs through right-sizing, cleanup, and infrastructure optimization • Applied security hardening based on least-privilege access, network isolation, and production best practices ✅ How I Work I take ownership of the infrastructure from architecture to deployment and ongoing reliability. I work closely with development teams to remove deployment bottlenecks, improve system visibility, automate repeatable work, and keep production stable. I can help with full AWS buildouts, CI/CD restructuring, Kubernetes and ECS improvements, Terraform cleanup, monitoring setup, incident investigation, and long-term DevOps support. My approach is simple: Automate what can be automated. Secure what must be protected. Monitor what matters. Keep production stable.
