About

A performance-driven DevOps / Infrastructure Engineer with hands-on experience in building and managing highly available, scalable, and secure cloud-native systems across AWS, GCP, and IBM Cloud. I specialize in Kubernetes orchestration, infrastructure automation using Terraform and Helm, and delivering fast, reliable software through streamlined CI/CD pipelines. At Sysdig, I’m part of the Data Infrastructure team, working across multi-cloud production environments, focused on PostgreSQL performance tuning, stateful workloads, monitoring and observability, security hardening, and cost optimization. I actively contribute to improving system reliability, managing critical databases, and ensuring smooth deployment of infrastructure at scale. I bring a strong operational mindset combined with platform engineering practices like GitOps, Backstage adoption, and incident response processes. With a keen focus on SLIs, SLOs, and system resilience, I aim to improve uptime, optimize performance, and help teams scale infrastructure with confidence.
