Cloud infrastructure architect specializing in Kubernetes orchestration and multi-cloud deployments. I've successfully led teams in migrating complex systems to cloud environments while maintaining high availability, with proven experience handling thousands of requests per second through sophisticated container orchestration.
My extensive hands-on experience includes building and managing both GKE and bare metal Kubernetes clusters, giving me a comprehensive understanding of container orchestration at scale.
I'm particularly passionate about building scalable, automated solutions that drive business transformation through efficient cloud adoption.
What sets me apart is my practical approach to monitoring and observability, coupled with a strong foundation in security and compliance.
I excel at collaborating with stakeholders to assess technical requirements and deliver solutions that align with business objectives. With my background in training and knowledge sharing, I'm skilled at breaking down complex technical concepts and building consensus around architectural decisions. Looking to leverage this experience in leading large-scale cloud migration initiatives while building modern, resilient infrastructure that enables sustainable growth and innovation.
