DevOps, AWS, Kubernetes, Gitlab, GKE, EKS

Here’s a clean, Upwork-ready rewrite you can paste into your profile. I kept it human, specific, and keyword-rich for search—while showcasing your 14+ years across cloud, DevOps, and automation. ✅ Cloud Architect & DevOps Engineer | AWS • GCP • Azure | Kubernetes • Terraform • CI/CD • DevSecOps I help companies design, secure, and automate cloud platforms that scale—from zero to production and beyond. With 14+ years across cloud engineering, DevOps architecture, and infrastructure automation, I’ve built end-to-end systems that start from a blank account and evolve into resilient, compliant, cost-efficient production environments. I work hands-on across AWS, GCP, and Azure; design robust networking (VPC/VNet, peering, VPN, Direct Connect/Interconnect, Transit); and automate everything with Terraform/Pulumi and modern CI/CD. Security and observability are baked in from day one. What I do Greenfield to Production: Ground-up cloud architecture, IaC, GitOps, and day-2 operations. Secure by Design: Network segmentation, least-privilege IAM, secrets, policy as code, and DevSecOps pipelines. Kubernetes at Scale: EKS/GKE/AKS design, cluster add-ons, multi-cluster/multi-region, HPA/VPA, autoscaling. High Throughput Systems: Architecting for millions of requests/second with caching, queues, and horizontal scale. Cost & Reliability: Right-sizing, spot strategy, autoscaling, SLOs, and disaster recovery runbooks. Recent impact (high level) Designed multi-region Kubernetes + GitOps platform to support spiky workloads with safe blue/green rollouts. Implemented full DevSecOps pipeline (SAST/DAST/Secrets/Dependency scanning) with policy gates and audit trails. Delivered VPC/VNet designs with private service access, egress controls, and zero-trust access patterns. Services Cloud Infrastructure ✔ Multi-cluster, multi-region VPC/VNet architectures with zonal resilience ✔ Security group / firewall / route audits ✔ Subnetting, routing, NAT/egress, private endpoints, WAF, IDS/IPS integration ✔ Connectivity: Direct Connect / Interconnect / ExpressRoute, IPSec VPN, Transit topologies, VPC peering ✔ AWS services: EKS, EC2, Lambda, RDS, Aurora, S3, CloudFront, ALB/NLB, Systems Manager, IAM DevOps & Automation ✔ Terraform (modules, workspaces, Terragrunt), Pulumi ✔ CloudFormation where required ✔ CI/CD: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, CircleCI, TravisCI ✔ GitOps with Argo CD / Flux, progressive delivery (blue/green, canary) ✔ DevSecOps: SAST/DAST/Secrets/Dependency scanning, SBOMs, policy as code (OPA/Conftest), image signing Kubernetes & Containers ✔ Managed K8s: EKS / GKE / AKS, plus K3s for edge/lab ✔ Helm chart authoring & lifecycle, Kustomize overlays, ApplicationSets ✔ Dockerization of .NET, Java, PHP, Go, Python apps; multi-stage builds; security baselines ✔ Observability: Prometheus/Grafana, logging, tracing; alerts tied to SLOs ✔ Autoscaling: HPA/VPA/Cluster Autoscaler; spot/priority classes; node pools & taints/tolerations How I work Architecture first, automation always: Clear diagrams, ADRs, and repeatable IaC. Security & compliance built-in: Least-privilege IAM, encryption, image/signature policies, supply-chain controls. Operability: Dashboards, alerting, runbooks, and DR/backup strategies you can actually use. Transparent delivery: Milestone plans, PR-driven changes, and documentation for easy handover. Tech stack (abridged) Cloud: AWS, GCP, Azure IaC: Terraform, Terragrunt, Pulumi, CloudFormation CI/CD: GitHub Actions, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Jenkins, CircleCI, TravisCI Kubernetes: EKS, GKE, AKS, K3s • Helm, Kustomize, Argo CD/Flux • Ingress/WAF/Cert-Manager Security: IAM, KMS/Envelope, OPA/Conftest, SAST/DAST, image signing, SBOMs Data & Runtime: RDS/Aurora, S3/GCS/Blob, Redis, MQ, Lambda/Functions, container registries Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, Loki/ELK, OpenTelemetry Engagement options Architecture & Implementation: Design → IaC → CI/CD → secure rollout. Platform Hardening:Security review, IAM/VPC hardening, cost/risk reduction. Kubernetes Enablement:Cluster build-out, add-ons, GitOps, SRE baselines. Migrations: Lift-and-shift with refactoring for scale, reliability, and cost. Let’s talk If you need a secure, automated cloud foundation—or want to level up what you already have—send a message with your goals and timelines. I’ll propose a practical plan with clear milestones and outcomes.
