You will get AWS EC2 Production Setup + Security Hardening
Top Rated
Top Rated
Project details
You will get a production-grade AWS EC2 instance — properly hardened, monitored, and ready for real traffic from day one. Not a temporary setup you will redo in 3 months.
I am a Top Rated Upwork engineer with a 100% Job Success Score, operating through SynTechOps LLC (Wyoming, USA). Recent production work: a multi-tenant SaaS running 49+ days uninterrupted uptime with 2,377 malicious IPs auto-blocked, and an AWS data pipeline for Baxter International using Terraform + GitHub Actions + Secrets Manager (zero secrets in git, fully reproducible).
Every delivery ships with:
✓ Hardened Ubuntu 22.04 (UFW, Fail2Ban, SSH lockdown)
✓ Nginx reverse proxy + auto-renewing Let's Encrypt SSL
✓ Least-privilege IAM role (no inline secrets)
✓ CloudWatch alarms (CPU, disk, memory) — email or Slack
✓ Daily EBS snapshots, 7-day retention
✓ Written operations runbook your team can follow
✓ 30-day post-delivery support
I do not set up and ghost. Handover comes with a runbook so your team can operate the system at 3 AM without paging an engineer. If anything fails my verification checklist, it is fixed before delivery — no partial handovers, no "we will fix it next week".

Looking for a DevOps freelancer for a ~20 hour engagement
I was blown away by Muhammad's commitment to this project. He blew past the timelines I gave him and delivered exactly what I needed way ahead of schedule. On top of that, he went above and beyond to ensure that the project was completed to satisfaction.
His communication was extremely clear and responsive. He'll be my first choice on my next project!!

About Muhammad Jahanzeb
AWS DevOps Engineer for SaaS Startups 49+ Day Uptime, Zero Rollback
100%
Job Success
Karachi, Pakistan - 8:26 am local time
production infrastructure for SaaS startups, fintech, and
e-commerce platforms. I'm the engineer your team calls when
production needs to stay up.
WHAT I'VE ACTUALLY SHIPPED (not promises — real production work):
→ Multi-tenant SaaS infrastructure running 49+ days uninterrupted
uptime, 2,377 malicious IPs auto-blocked, 23/23 UAT scenarios
passed on cutover. Docker + Nginx + Cloudflare + Grafana stack.
→ Production AWS data pipeline for Baxter International — EC2 +
Terraform + GitHub Actions + AWS Secrets Manager. Zero secrets
in git, IAM least-privilege, fully reproducible from cold start.
→ PHP 8.1 + MySQL + Stripe Checkout rebuild for a wholesale
marketplace — 265/265 tests passing across unit, integration,
HTTP, and security suites. 9,758-customer production database
verified untouched on cutover.
→ Full Next.js + MongoDB marketplace shipped end-to-end with
JazzCash payment integration, JWT auth, DKIM/SPF/DMARC email,
signed Android TWA APK. 29/29 smoke tests on every deploy.
HOW I WORK:
• Spec-first — endpoints, data models, migration plan, rollback
steps written before any code is shipped
• Migration safety as default — every schema change reviewed for
lock behaviour, backwards-compat, and rollback path
• Stop-the-line authority — I block PRs that aren't ready,
including from senior stakeholders, with clear written reasons
• Runbooks anyone can follow — deploy steps, rollback steps, and
incident playbooks live in the repo as Markdown
• Async-first communication — release notes, post-mortems, and
ADRs so the next person on call doesn't need to ping me
STACK I RUN IN PRODUCTION DAILY:
AWS (EC2, ECS, S3, RDS, IAM, Secrets Manager, Lambda) · GCP
(Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Cloud Build) · Terraform · Docker ·
GitHub Actions · Nginx · PostgreSQL · MongoDB · MySQL · Redis ·
Python (Django, FastAPI) · Node.js · Next.js · PHP 8.1 ·
Cloudflare · Grafana / Prometheus · Loki · Sentry
I'm based in Karachi and operate as an independent contractor
through SynTechOps LLC (Wyoming, USA) — comfortable working
US/EU/UK overlap hours.
Available for long-term retainers, fixed-fee projects, and
contract-to-hire engagements. Best fit if you need an engineer
who'll own a system end-to-end and write down what they did.
Steps for completing your project
After purchasing the project, send requirements so Muhammad Jahanzeb can start the project.
Delivery time starts when Muhammad Jahanzeb receives requirements from you.
Muhammad Jahanzeb works on your project following the steps below.
Revisions may occur after the delivery date.
Discovery Call & Final Spec Confirmation
15-minute call to confirm region, instance size, domain, notification target, and SSH IP. I write up the final spec in writing — no ambiguity before any AWS resource is created.
Provision VPC, Subnet & EC2 Instance
Create dedicated VPC, public subnet, internet gateway, route table, and security group. Launch EC2 with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, attach Elastic IP, configure encrypted root volume.
