Need infrastructure that actually works at 3 AM without waking you up? That's what I build.

I'm a DevOps and Cloud Engineer with 23 years in IT and two decades of hands-on systems administration. I've spent the last several years deep in AWS, Kubernetes, and infrastructure automation — helping companies stop firefighting and start scaling.

What I actually do:

I take messy, manual infrastructure and turn it into automated, self-healing systems. Whether you're running on bare metal and dreaming of the cloud, or you're already on AWS but your deployments take hours instead of minutes — I can help.

My technical toolkit:

Cloud & Containers: AWS (EKS, ECS, Lambda, RDS, and pretty much everything else), Kubernetes, Docker, Helm charts (I write custom ones, not just copy-paste)

Infrastructure as Code: Terraform and Ansible — because clicking around in consoles doesn't scale

CI/CD Pipelines: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, TeamCity. I've built pipelines that deploy 50+ times a day without breaking things

Programming: Python and Golang (5+ years each), plus all the Bash you'd expect

Databases & Networking: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DNS, VPNs, load balancing — the stuff that keeps everything connected

The compliance piece:

Here's something that sets me apart: I've done real HIPAA and SOC 2 work. Not just checking boxes, but actually implementing security controls, preparing for audits, and writing the documentation that satisfies auditors. If you're in healthcare or fintech, you know how valuable this is.
