Building resilient infrastructure that never sleeps.
Cloud Security & Site Reliability Engineer who turns infrastructure into a competitive advantage.
4x Google Cloud Certified. Multi-cloud. Equal parts architect, advisor, and operator.
I'm the person teams calls when production needs to be bulletproof. Over the past 5+ years, I've built and hardened cloud platforms across GCP, AWS, and Azure for enterprises that can't afford outages — healthcare systems under HIPAA, financial services needing 99.99% availability, and fast-scaling startups breaking through traffic ceilings.
My day-to-day sits at the intersection of security, reliability, and velocity. I architect infrastructure that self-heals, write pipelines that ship code safely in minutes, and build observability stacks that catch issues before customers notice. When something goes wrong at 3 AM, I'm the one writing the blameless postmortem the next morning — and making sure it never happens again.
I'm equally comfortable in a customer-facing room as I am in a terminal. I've led technical discovery workshops, built and presented proof-of-concept architectures to C-suite stakeholders, and translated business pain points into cloud solutions that actually ship. I've directly contributed to closing pre-sales engagements by demonstrating architecture viability and quantifying ROI — including cloud spend optimization that saved customers 30-40% on annual infrastructure costs through rightsizing, committed use discounts, and workload scheduling.
I hold a Master's in Computer Science from Stevens Institute of Technology, backed by four Google Cloud Professional certifications spanning Architecture, DevOps, Data Engineering, and Network Engineering. I've also mentored and grown an entire cohort of junior engineers into confident L2 contributors.
Compliance isn't a checkbox — it's woven into every Terraform module, every pipeline gate, and every IAM policy I write.
If I do it twice, I automate it. GitOps workflows, SOAR playbooks, self-healing infra — manual is the enemy of reliable.
Grew 6 junior engineers into promoted L2s through pairing, code reviews, and blameless RCA culture. Teams I touch ship faster.
Rightsizing, committed use discounts, workload scheduling, and billing analysis. I've cut customer cloud spend by 30-40% without sacrificing performance.
Led discovery workshops, presented POC architectures to C-suite, and translated business pain into cloud solutions that close deals and deliver results.
Every system I own has clearly defined Service Level Objectives. Error budgets drive release decisions, not hunches. When the budget is healthy, we ship aggressively. When it's burning, we pause and stabilize.
You can't fix what you can't see. I instrument everything — metrics, traces, structured logs; and build dashboards that tell a story. The goal is to detect anomalies before they become incidents, and resolve incidents before they become outages.
Toil is the tax on your team's creativity. I relentlessly automate repetitive operational work — deployments, certificate rotations, scaling decisions, remediation — so engineers can focus on building, not babysitting.
Security controls belong in the CI pipeline, not in a quarterly review. Policy-as-code, least-privilege IAM, encrypted-by-default, vulnerability scanning at build time — hardening happens before merge, not after breach.
Incidents are learning opportunities, not blame games. Every outage gets a structured RCA focused on systemic causes — what controls failed, what monitoring gaps existed, and what changes prevent recurrence.
If it's not in a Terraform plan or a Helm chart, it's a liability. Reproducible, version-controlled, peer-reviewed infrastructure is the only kind I trust in production.
Cloud spend without visibility is just waste. I build FinOps practices into every engagement — rightsizing underutilized resources, leveraging committed use discounts, scheduling non-critical workloads, and setting up billing alerts that keep stakeholders informed before costs spiral.
The best architecture starts with listening, not building. I invest time understanding a customer's business constraints, compliance landscape, and growth trajectory before touching a single config file. Technical excellence means nothing if it doesn't solve the real problem.

Broke apart a monolithic application into containerized microservices on GKE, wired up blue/green deployments through Istio service mesh, and provisioned multi-zone infrastructure with automatic failover — all driven by GitLab CI and Terraform. Built a unified observability layer (ELK + Prometheus + Grafana) that gave the ops team real-time visibility across every service. The platform now sustains 99.99% uptime with Security Command Center enforcing continuous compliance and least-privilege IAM.
Designed and delivered a full Google Security Operations stack for a regulated enterprise — from ingestion architecture to production go-live. Wired up 30+ log sources through BindPlane with UDM normalization, wrote 45+ custom YARA-L detection rules, and built 12 automated SOAR playbooks that trigger remediation and alerting through PagerDuty and YouTrack. The SOC team now has 8 purpose-built dashboards giving them real-time threat visibility.
Authored the Statement of Work and RACI matrix for a DR initiative in financial services, then built the actual system: automated backup, cross-region replication, and event-driven failover pipelines spanning Cloud SQL, Firestore, Firebase, and GCS. Integrated the entire stack with Security Command Center and Cloud Monitoring for real-time alerting, compliance tracking (HIPAA, SOC2), and self-healing remediation workflows. Target: 99.99% availability with zero data loss.
Directed a ground-up compliance hardening effort for healthcare IT infrastructure. Centralized authentication through an IAM platform, killed legacy protocols, locked down RDP and external IPs on all resources, and built Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plans from scratch. The result: a significantly reduced attack surface and full HIPAA audit readiness across every environment.
Building and maintaining a library of reusable, opinionated Terraform modules that serve as the foundation for all GCP resource provisioning. Covers compute, networking, IAM, storage, and database resources with built-in security defaults, tagging conventions, and compliance guardrails — enabling any team to spin up production-grade infrastructure in minutes instead of days.
Migrated customer-facing applications and their backing databases from AWS to Google Cloud Platform — handling networking, data transfer, DNS cutover, and validation. This was my first large-scale migration and where I developed the playbook and instincts I still use today.
Built a full-text search engine backed by Elasticsearch and Kibana, with custom analyzers, relevance tuning, and a query interface. Applied text mining techniques to optimize result ranking.
Fine-tuned a BERT-based language model to automatically rank and predict relevant tags for programming questions — turning unstructured text into structured, searchable metadata.
Implemented Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis with the EM algorithm to identify underlying programming languages in synthetic code snippets — a probabilistic approach to code classification.
Compared TF-IDF and BM25 retrieval algorithms on the large-scale LinkSO community Q&A dataset, analyzing precision, recall, and ranking quality for question-answer similarity matching.
Full-stack flight booking web app with search, seat selection, and reservation management. Built with vanilla JavaScript on the frontend and MongoDB for persistent storage.
Browser-based music player with playlist management, playback controls, and a responsive UI — a clean exercise in DOM manipulation and audio API integration.
Real-time flight departure board powered by a third-party API from RapidAPI. Displays live departure data with a clean, airport-style interface.
Database-driven web app for managing student records and academic results — featuring CRUD operations, search, and reporting. Built with Java, MySQL, and a web frontend.

Looking for my next challenge in SRE, DevSecOps, Customer Engineering, Platform Engineering or Solutions Architecture. I love helping customers solve hard infrastructure problems — whether that's in a pre-sales room or a production war room.
