What I Bring

Senior cloud infrastructure engineer with hands-on delivery across AWS GovCloud, multi-account governance, Terraform, Kubernetes/EKS, Service Catalog, CI/CD pipelines, Linux/RHEL, and compliance-oriented production environments. I am strongest where infrastructure must be secure, auditable, automated, and practical enough for teams to operate under real delivery pressure.

Selected Impact

12 weeks to 3 hours

Reduced a projected AWS GovCloud organization migration to three 1-hour execution windows with zero downtime.

4 weeks early

Completed a RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 migration across four federal GovCloud tenants ahead of schedule.

120+ hours avoided

Designed a root volume swap strategy that preserved private IPs and eliminated large manual data transfers.

Production risk reduced

Rebuilt Terraform and CI/CD workflows so plan output was visible and applies required explicit engineer approval.

Best Fit

  • Cleared cloud infrastructure, DevOps, platform, or SRE-style roles.
  • AWS GovCloud, federal, contractor, or regulated enterprise environments.
  • Terraform-heavy infrastructure with CI/CD, governance, auditability, and change control.
  • Cloud migrations, container platforms, secure account design, and operational troubleshooting.
