Abandoned management to embrace my love for tech. That's my story. I have 24 years of comprehensive IT experience, With the past 6 years dedicated to hands-on cloud computing, I have designed, implemented, and maintained secure and scalable AWS infrastructure. This includes leveraging Terraform to streamline resource provisioning and maintain scalable, automated infrastructure deployments, migrating applications to the cloud, automating processes using Packer, Shell Script/Python, containerizing applications using Docker and Kubernetes, and implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions. In prior roles, I gained extensive project management experience, successfully managing clients across diverse industries (Automobile, Retail, Finance) and geographies (UK, Europe, US). In the initial phase of my career, I focused on .NET web development. What sets me apart? My ability to blend technical expertise with creative problem-solving and crystal-clear client communication.
