Cloud & DevOps Engineer building production-grade AWS and Kubernetes platforms
Designing scalable, automated and secure cloud environments using Infrastructure as Code.
I design and build cloud infrastructure that is:
- Scalable
- Automated
- Reproducible
- Production-ready
My focus is on AWS environments built with Terraform, containerised workloads with Docker, and reliable CI/CD pipelines.
I approach infrastructure with the mindset that:
If it can't be versioned and automated, it shouldn't exist.
- Cloud: AWS (EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, ECS, Route 53)
- Infrastructure as Code: Terraform (modules, remote state, workspaces)
- Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes (EKS)
- CI/CD: GitHub Actions
- OS & Scripting: Linux, Bash
Production-style AWS infrastructure built from scratch using Terraform.
Includes:
- Custom VPC with public/private subnets
- NAT Gateway & Internet Gateway
- Secure IAM roles and policies
- Remote backend configuration
- Modular architecture structure
Goal: Simulate real-world infrastructure layout and best practices.
End-to-end container deployment workflow.
Includes:
- Dockerised application
- ECR image registry
- ECS (Fargate) service deployment
- CI pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Automated build & push process
Goal: Fully automated container lifecycle from commit to deployment.
Production-style Kubernetes environment running on AWS EKS.
Includes:
- Terraform-managed VPC and EKS cluster
- Dockerised FastAPI application
- ECR image registry integration
- ALB Ingress (AWS Load Balancer Controller)
- Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA)
- Liveness & Readiness probes
- Resource requests & limits
- GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline (build → push → deploy)
Goal: Demonstrate real-world Kubernetes operations on AWS with Infrastructure as Code and automated deployments.
- Infrastructure is code, not configuration
- Security is designed early, not added later
- Automation reduces operational risk
- Clear folder structure > clever hacks
I focus on writing infrastructure that teams can understand and maintain.
