I’m a Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience building web applications, originally focused on frontend development and now actively transitioning into DevOps and Cloud Engineering.

I enjoy building scalable systems, improving developer workflows, and working with cloud infrastructure that powers real-world applications.

• I started my career as a frontend developer, building responsive and interactive user interfaces
• I later pivoted into backend systems, DevOps, and cloud engineering to understand how products scale in production
• I’m currently focused on AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, and distributed systems design
• I’m looking to collaborate on cloud infrastructure projects, backend systems, and open-source DevOps tools
