Cloud & Infrastructure Engineer, I make enterprise data secure, clusters stable, and cloud migrations painless.

I build resilient, secure, and scalable platforms that let engineering teams move fast without breaking production. With hands-on experience across AWS, Kubernetes, Cloudera, and enterprise data-protection stacks (IBM Guardium + Thales CipherTrust), I deliver end-to-end solutions: encrypting sensitive data, stabilizing big-data clusters, and executing low-risk cloud migrations.

Core Strengths:

☁️ Cloud & Infrastructure: AWS migrations and optimization (EC2, serverless), performance tuning, and cost-aware architecture.

☸️ Platform & Orchestration: Production-ready Kubernetes clusters (HA, custom CNI), monitoring/logging (ELK/Grafana), and managing stateful workloads.

? Data Security & Compliance: Enterprise encryption, dynamic/static masking, real-time monitoring, and GDPR/PCI DSS audit automation.

? Big Data Operations: CDH → CDP upgrades, cluster health checks, and root-cause troubleshooting (Kudu, HDFS, YARN).

⚙️ Automation & Tooling: Python, Shell, and Ansible for repeatable deployments and operational efficiency.

Certifications: ? CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) ? AWS Solutions Architect Associate ? GCP Professional Cloud Architect

Backed by cross-border consulting experience in KSA & Pakistan. I’m actively looking to connect with hiring managers building Platform/Cloud teams that need someone who reduces operational risk and accelerates delivery.
