I'm an Aspiring Platform Engineer passionate about multi-cloud architecture, infrastructure as code (IaC), and DevSecOps automation. I'm actively building new projects that challenge me and help me develop new skills so I can continuously grow and learn. My focus is on creating scalable, secure, and reusable cloud platforms—mainly on AWS and Azure—as I prepare for the next step in my career.

• Design and implement multi-cloud networking solutions connecting AWS and Azure
• Build modular Terraform infrastructure with isolated environments and reusable modules
• Automate cloud deployments with GitHub Actions pipelines featuring dynamic inputs and security scanning tools like tfsec, trivy, and tflint
• Apply DevSecOps best practices by embedding security early in infrastructure workflows
• Work with Ansible for configuration management and automation
• Continuously learning and exploring new cloud-native technologies and automation tools

I'm actively expanding my skills in the following areas to grow as a Platform and Cloud DevSecOps Engineer:

• Kubernetes (K8s) fundamentals and GitOps with Argo CD or Flux
• OPA & Rego for policy-as-code enforcement
• Secrets management with HashiCorp Vault, Azure Key Vault, and AWS SSM Parameter Store
• Cloud-native security scanning with tools like Checkov and Snyk
• Admission Controllers and runtime policy enforcement for Kubernetes
• Monitoring and alerting with Prometheus, Grafana, and Cloud Watch
• Event-driven automation and CI/CD pipeline design with GitHub Actions
• Internal Developer Platforms with Backstage and self-service workflows
• Python Scripting

Reusable Azure platform infrastructure with Terraform and GitHub Actions automation, focusing on secure networking, identity, compute, and storage.

A multi-cloud VPN connecting AWS and Azure, enabling secure cross-cloud communication with Terraform modules and tested workloads.

A library of Terraform modules to create scalable and secure multi-cloud networking architectures with DevSecOps pipelines.

In this project i will be codifying the Azure DevOps pipeline using terraform.
