About
I’m a Senior Site Reliability Engineer and AWS Certified Solutions Architect with 6+ years owning production reliability for distributed systems across fintech, IoT, and e-commerce. I build reliability strategy grounded in SLO/SLI frameworks, error-budget governance, and incident leadership for SEV1/SEV2 events.
I’ve defined and governed SLO/SLI and runbook automation on Amazon EKS, improving outcomes without sacrificing availability. In previous work, I cut MTTR by 50% while sustaining 99.99% availability, and I lead blameless postmortems and on-call operating models that reduce repeat incidents.
My approach is automation-first: I reduced operational toil 85% by implementing self-healing and targeted remediation, and I improved alert quality by consolidating observability signals into actionable incident feeds. I pair hands-on Linux and programming (Python) with architectural judgment, from Terraform IaC and GitOps to automated rollback and self-healing deployments.
I also bring a security and compliance mindset—supporting SOC 2 and ISO 27001:2022 paths and building zero-trust, least-privilege environments. I’m motivated to keep moving reliability “left,” strengthen incident intelligence with RAG-based workflows, and mentor engineers to scale trustworthy platforms.
