Professional Summary
Platform and Cloud Infrastructure Engineer with over 8 years of experience designing, automating, and securing Linux-based production environments across Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon Web Services. I bridge traditional systems administration with modern AI-enhanced workflows (leveraging ChatGPT, Claude, and GitHub Copilot) to accelerate scripting, author infrastructure code, and resolve operational issues faster. My background covers IaC (Terraform, Ansible), CI/CD pipeline management, PostgreSQL database clustering, and security hardening.
I am equally comfortable managing on-premises VMware hypervisors, server rooms, and cloud-native infrastructure. I take a highly pragmatic approach to operations — combining robust monitoring and observability with prompt engineering and AI assistant tools to eliminate operational overhead, automate manual tasks, and focus on delivering high-availability platform architecture.
