SUMMARY: I have 6+ years of experience as a Cloud DevOps Engineer who's great at managing and automating stuff in the cloud, especially in Azure and AWS. I'm good at creating and caring for things like Azure Key Vaults, Active Directory, and Virtual Networks. I'm also skilled in using tools like Terraform and AWS CloudFormation to make things happen automatically. I know how to keep secrets safe with tools like Hashi Corp Vault and Consul, and I can set up security for Azure Storage. I'm handy with scripting, using Python for AWS, and making scripts in Python, PowerShell, and Bash to do tasks automatically. I've created special setups with Ansible for IIS and SQL Server. When it comes to making things run smoothly, I've set up Jenkins pipelines to make building and deploying software easier. I'm good with Git, which helps keep track of code changes. I'm also a pro at using Docker for packaging and deploying applications. I'm skilled in handling security, using Azure controls and Splunk for monitoring and analysis. I've even worked with tools like SonarQube to ensure secure code. I'm big on Infrastructure as Code (IaC), especially using Terraform and Puppet to manage how things are set up. I'm also good at teamwork, and I've helped teams work together better using tools like JIRA and Git. Lastly, I know my way around Linux systems, including web servers like Apache, and how to offer support when things go wrong.
