Senior AWS DevOps Engineer — 25+ years building reliable cloud infrastructure.
I specialize in AWS architecture, cost optimization, security, CI/CD, and multi-account governance for teams that need production-ready infrastructure, not experiments. Currently automating manual tasks with AI pipelines — including MS Patch Tuesday deployments.
AWS Expertise & Services
I work across the full AWS stack, from infrastructure design to cost governance, security, and automation. Here's what I deliver:
AWS Architecture & Design
VPC design, multi-AZ deployments, networking, load balancing, and architecture that scales reliably.
Cost Optimization & FinOps
Right-sizing, Savings Plans, Reserved Instances, cost governance, and predictable AWS spending.
CI/CD & DevOps Automation
GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, AWS CodePipeline, CloudFormation, and deployment pipelines.
Security & Compliance
IAM, security groups, encryption, logging, compliance (ISO 27001, SOC2), and security posture improvement.
Multi-Account Governance
AWS Organizations, account structure, cross-account access, and governance patterns for scale.
Infrastructure as Code
CloudFormation, CDK, and infrastructure automation for maintainable, repeatable deployments.
AI Pipeline Automation
Automating manual operational tasks with AI-powered pipelines. Currently building automated MS Patch Tuesday deployment pipelines and other routine infrastructure tasks.
