Business Strategy × Platform Engineering · Multi-cloud · Cloud Governance · Security by Design · FinOps
Principal Solutions Architect (Staff+) at the intersection of business strategy and Platform Engineering.
I design multi-account/region architectures across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI with Cloud Governance, Security by Design, and FinOps at the core.
I standardize the SDLC with IaC (Terraform/CDK/Ansible/CloudFormation), Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/GKE/OKE), and CI/CD — delivering scale, reliability, and cost optimization in complex multi-cloud environments.
- Modernization & Migrations: landing zones, Organizations, policy-as-code; networking (TGW/DX); containers (ECS/Fargate/EKS); API Gateway; event-driven integrations (EventBridge/SQS/Step Functions/Lambda); service mesh.
- Security & Compliance: Zero Trust, IAM/KMS, WAF/ALB, account segregation, DR/Backup with compliance — tying technical decisions to risk, cost, and time-to-market.
- DevEx & Platform: IDP/Backstage with service catalog & golden paths (opinionated templates in Terraform/CDK/K8s), reusable pipelines (GitHub Actions), PR previews, and self-service with guardrails.
- Observability & Reliability: Prometheus/Grafana/Loki/OpenTelemetry, SLOs from day one.
Tools and languages I use most often in platform & cloud architecture, delivery, and operations.
