Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical EngineeringTerraform
Kubernetes & Container Orchestration
Expertise in running production Kubernetes on AWS (EKS), including migration from ECS to Kubernetes, multi-NodePool provisioning strategies with Karpenter, Helm chart deployments, and managing scalable container orchestration platforms across development, staging, and production environments.
Infrastructure as Code with Terraform
Proficiency in provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure using Terraform in monorepo setups with isolated state per environment and component, automating EKS cluster creation, RDS MySQL, ElastiCache, shared VPC networking, and least-privilege IAM roles for consistent and reproducible deployments.
CI/CD Pipeline Engineering
Strong background in designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and ArgoCD GitOps workflows, including reusable composite actions, BuildKit layer caching, immutable image tagging, and automated deployment pipelines reducing workflow run duration and deployment errors.
Cloud Platforms (AWS & GCP)
Hands-on experience with AWS services including EKS, ECS, RDS, ElastiCache, S3, Route 53, SES, IAM, Cost Explorer, Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, DynamoDB, and CloudWatch, as well as GCP, with a track record of achieving significant cloud cost reductions through right-sizing and autoscaling strategies.
Observability & Monitoring
Setup and management of observability stacks using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki with Promtail, Sentry, Datadog, and CloudWatch, providing real-time insight into application performance and enabling root-cause diagnosis of production incidents.
Containerization with Docker
Extensive use of Docker for containerizing Node.js, PHP, Go, and Ruby on Rails applications, including Dockerfile optimization, BuildKit layer caching, and multi-platform image builds to ensure portability and consistent configuration across environments.
GitOps with ArgoCD
Implementation of GitOps workflows using ArgoCD in self-managed app-of-apps topologies with RBAC, separating development and DevOps permissions, establishing automated deployment pipelines syncing from dedicated GitOps configuration repositories.
Security & Secrets Management
Integration of AWS Secrets Manager and Vault for secure credential injection in staging and production environments, as well as Trivy vulnerability scanning embedded into build pipelines for security checks within the standard development workflow.
Programming & Scripting
Scripting and automation capabilities using Bash and Python, supporting infrastructure automation, tooling, and operational tasks across DevOps workflows.
Version Control & Collaboration
Proficient use of Git, GitHub, and GitLab for source control, multi-repository infrastructure strategies, and collaborative development workflows enabling independent versioning and improved CI/CD pipeline maintainability.

Project history
Infrastructure engineer for a DOOH advertising platform operating approximately 1,000 active screens across KSA/MENA, owning two EKS clusters, all AWS infrastructure, CI/CD, and observability. Migrated microservices from ECS to Kubernetes, reduced AWS spend by 30% through Karpenter-driven autoscaling and right-sizing, implemented GitOps with ArgoCD, built reusable GitHub Actions composite actions, provisioned infrastructure with Terraform, configured DNS/SSL management, established observability stack with Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Sentry, and migrated media storage from AWS S3 to Cloudflare R2 reducing storage costs by 70%.
Designed and implemented a full DevOps pipeline to deploy a Ruby Rails-based application leveraging Kubernetes, GitOps, and CI/CD. Containerized a Ruby on Rails application, deployed on Minikube using Helm charts, configured ArgoCD for automated synchronization, and implemented a Tekton CI/CD pipeline for multi-platform Docker image builds.
Designed and deployed a serverless application using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, and DynamoDB to manage e-commerce order processing. Developed Node.js Lambda functions, implemented infrastructure as code using AWS SAM templates, built CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, and configured CloudWatch for monitoring and logging.
