I am a results-driven DevOps Engineer and Cloud Architect dedicated to building and maintaining robust, scalable, and efficient infrastructure. With expertise in Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and CI/CD automation, I empower organizations to achieve faster release cycles, improved reliability, and optimized cloud performance.
