About

Cloud/infrastructure engineer from ASM Research supporting federal healthcare systems, operating multi-cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP) environments at ~2000-server scale. Deep hands-on experience with Terraform/Ansible IaC, PR-based governance (Atlantis), and secure CI/CD (OIDC/least privilege), with concrete incident response wins and HA/failover testing improvements. Not an IBM Power/AIX specialist but comfortable translating virtualization/partitioning and ops practices to new platforms.

Key Strengths

  • Multi-cloud IaC at enterprise scale (AWS/Azure/GCP) supporting ~2000 servers
  • Strong Terraform engineering: modular design, separated layers, per-environment workspaces, remote state with locking
  • Safe rollout governance: PR-based Terraform workflow with Atlantis, peer review, and plan/apply gates
  • Rapid incident recovery (restored RDS connectivity in ~15 minutes after Terraform SG recreate)
  • Improved deployment safety by adding destroy-action approval gates and enforcing create_before_destroy
  • Built secure CI/CD with OIDC and least-privilege principals; added smoke tests to prevent silent pipeline failures
  • Led HA/failover testing and reduced cutover impact by tuning DNS TTL (90s to <20s)
