Hire the Best GitLab Specialists

I've helped startups cut AWS bills by 75% and ship code faster without breaking production. If your team is dealing with manual deployments, unpredictable cloud costs, fragile pipelines, or infrastructure that nobody fully understands anymore, that's exactly what I fix. I'm a DevOps and Platform Engineer with 4+ years of hands-on experience building and managing cloud infrastructure that development teams can actually rely on. I don't just set things up. I make sure everything is documented, automated, and maintainable long after the contract ends. What I've actually delivered: 75% AWS cost reduction by auditing and restructuring cloud spending using ECS, Terraform, and rightsizing strategies without touching uptime Zero-downtime migrations moving production apps from Lovable and hosted Supabase to self-hosted DigitalOcean with zero data loss 70% faster release cycles by replacing manual deployments with automated end-to-end CI/CD pipelines Production-grade Kubernetes managing multi-node EKS clusters with auto-scaling handling 1000+ req/min workloads My Stack: AWS (EC2, ECS, EKS, RDS, S3, Lambda, CodePipeline, CloudFront, VPC), Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Jenkins, ArgoCD, Ansible, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, Python, Bash I'm the right fit if you need: CI/CD pipelines built or fixed using GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins, or CodePipeline AWS infrastructure optimized, migrated, or built from scratch Containerization of legacy apps with Docker and Kubernetes or EKS IaC setup with Terraform that is reproducible, version-controlled, and drift-free Cloud cost audit to find and eliminate waste without sacrificing performance Monitoring and alerting with Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK that actually tells you something useful Self-hosted Supabase, database migrations, or DigitalOcean deployments AWS Certified Developer Associate (DVA-C02). Currently pursuing AWS DevOps Engineer Professional and CKAD. Clear communication, fast delivery, no surprises. Let's talk about your infrastructure.

Most clients find me after wasting weeks on engineers who deploy fast but leave security gaps, brittle scripts, and zero documentation behind. Well, I do the opposite. I'm a DevSecOps engineer with 7+ years building cloud infrastructure that is production-hardened from day one, not secured as an afterthought. AWS, Kubernetes, CI/CD, secrets management, container security, GDPR-compliant workflows, all of it built clean and documented properly. I'm also one of the few engineers who builds AND secures AI agent systems. LangChain, CrewAI, RAG pipelines, MCP servers, I understand the attack surface of modern AI infrastructure that most security engineers have never touched. 🔐 Security & DevSecOps 🔹 Linux Hardening: firewalls, iptables, SSH lockdown, fail2ban, SSL/TLS 🔹 Secrets Management: HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, GCP Secret Manager 🔹 Container Security: Docker Hardening, Kubernetes RBAC, Network Policies, Pod Security Standards 🔹 Server Management: WHM, cPanel, Plesk, Webmin, Virtualmin 🔹 GDPR-ready Workflows: encrypted APIs, secure backups, access control 🔹 CI/CD Security: secrets scanning, signed images, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins ☁️ Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps 🔹 AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean: deployment, scaling, cost optimization 🔹 Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible 🔹 CI/CD pipelines: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI 🔹 Container orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm 🔹 GitOps: ArgoCD, Flux 🤖 AI Infrastructure & Automation 🔹 Multi-agent systems: LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen 🔹 Model Context Protocol (MCP) server integration 🔹 RAG pipelines & vector search: Pinecone, Qdrant, Weaviate, ChromaDB 🔹 LLM app builders: Dify.ai, Flowise 🔹 Multi-model routing: OpenRouter 🔹 AI agents: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock 🔹 Local LLMs: Ollama, Mistral, Llama on Linux servers 🔹 Workflow automation: n8n, Make, Zapier, APIs & webhooks 💻 Full Stack & WordPress 🔹 Backend: Laravel, Node.js, Java, NestJS, Python, Go 🔹 Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis 🔹 WordPress: Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen, WP-CLI, Gutenberg, Headless WordPress 📊 Monitoring & Reliability 🔹 Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, ELK Stack, Sentry, CloudWatch 🔹 Automated backups: Rclone, AWS S3, GCP buckets 💼 You're a great fit if you are: 🔹 A startup that needs infrastructure secured from day one 🔹 An agency that wants one reliable long-term technical partner 🔹 A business running AI agents that needs someone who understands both the build side and the security risks Tell me what you're building. I'll make it secure, automated, and production-ready.
