Architecture · Security · Reliability · Scale

01 / SECURITY

DevSecOps & Zero-Trust Governance

Embedding automated security controls directly into CI/CD workflows—from container image vulnerability scanning and SBOM attestation to least-privilege IAM boundaries and SOC2 compliance guardrails.

Trivy / Snyk HashiCorp Vault OPA Gatekeeper AWS IAM / SCPs
02 / CLOUD

Cloud Architecture & FinOps

Designing multi-account AWS Landing Zones, zero-downtime hybrid cloud migrations, and ARM64/Graviton compute right-sizing that routinely cuts infrastructure spend by 30–45%.

AWS Control Tower GCP Graviton / Karpenter Transit Gateway
03 / RELIABILITY

Site Reliability Engineering (SRE)

Operating multi-region Kubernetes platforms backed by SLO/error-budget frameworks, full-stack OpenTelemetry tracing, Prometheus/Grafana observability, and blameless incident response.

Kubernetes / EKS Prometheus & Grafana OpenTelemetry Istio / Cilium
04 / AUTOMATION

Infrastructure as Code & Internal Tooling

Replacing brittle manual runbooks with modular Terraform/OpenTofu blueprints, GitOps progressive delivery via ArgoCD, and custom CLI/operator tooling written in Go and Python.
