DevOps Engineer with 70+ completed Upwork contracts, 1,100+ billed hours, $100K+ earned and a 100% Job Success Score. Top Rated Plus. If your infrastructure breaks at 2 AM, your deploys take 45 minutes, or your AWS bill climbed 40% and nobody can explain why, this is the DevOps Engineer you hire to fix all three. Former SRE Lead / DevOps Engineer at Yellow AI (100M+ users, AWS + on-prem). Today I run Skybyte Technologies, a DevOps and cloud engineering agency (Top Rated Plus, 100% JSS) for funded startups and mid-market teams that need a senior DevOps Engineer without the senior hire. WHAT A DEVOPS ENGINEER FROM SKYBYTE DELIVERS SOC 2 and cloud security - SOC 2 infrastructure from scratch (5+ SOC 2 readiness and implementation contracts on Upwork, 5.0 rated), cloud security audits on AWS and Azure, Cloudflare WAF and DDoS protection, network security architecture, IAM design, GDPR/DPDP-aligned data handling. I build the controls and write the documentation auditors accept. Most DevOps Engineers stop at the pipeline; this is the half that gets you through the audit. Cloud cost optimization (FinOps) - cut AWS, Azure and GCP spend by 40-60% through right-sizing, Reserved Instances, spot fleets and architecture cleanup. I run the cost audit, build the dashboard and hand you the savings. Kubernetes Engineer work - production migrations to EKS, AKS, GKE and self-managed clusters on Hetzner. Helm charts, ArgoCD GitOps, zero-downtime cutovers, SSO/SAML on Kubernetes. Clusters from 6 pods to 200+ pods. CKA-certified Kubernetes administrator. CI/CD Engineer work - GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps Pipelines, Bitbucket Pipelines, Jenkins. Took teams from 45-minute manual deploys to sub-5-minute automated releases with rollback built in. Infrastructure as Code - full AWS, Azure and GCP environments in Terraform modules with state management, drift detection and PR-based infrastructure review your team can maintain without me. SRE, monitoring and observability - Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, OpenTelemetry, Datadog, PagerDuty. SLOs, runbooks and on-call workflows that catch failures before your users file tickets. Beyond core DevOps Engineer scope - AWS Solutions Architect design reviews, Cloud Engineer migrations (on-prem to cloud, multi-cloud), Docker deployments on bare metal and VPS, GCP Cloud Run serverless, n8n workflow automation, MLOps pipelines, AWS WorkSpaces hardening, and technical documentation your team will actually read. Claude Partner Badge - Claude Code certified for AI-assisted automation. WHO HIRES ME Funded startups burning money on cloud, engineering teams stuck in deployment hell, and companies that need SOC 2 or ISO 27001 without hiring a compliance team. Typical searches that lead here: DevOps Engineer, AWS DevOps Engineer, Kubernetes Engineer, Cloud Engineer, SRE, Site Reliability Engineer, SOC 2 Consultant, Terraform, Cloud Security Engineer, Platform Engineer. Stack: AWS (EKS, EC2, Lambda, RDS, S3, WorkSpaces) - Azure (AKS, DevOps, Entra ID, Intune) - GCP (GKE, Cloud Run) - Kubernetes - Helm - ArgoCD - Terraform - Ansible - Docker - GitHub Actions - GitLab CI - Jenkins - Prometheus - Grafana - Loki - OpenTelemetry - Datadog - Cloudflare - Linux - n8n - Python Not a "set it up and disappear" DevOps Engineer.
