I'm Designer
About
I am a continuous technology practitioner with hands-on experience across telecommunications, banking, government data centers, and software-driven environments. My career began in technical support and Linux system administration, where I built a strong foundation in troubleshooting, operational reliability, and high-availability infrastructure. Over time, my work evolved into infrastructure engineering, automation, and security-focused DevOps practices. I have supported and managed Linux and Windows systems, enterprise networks, virtualized and cloud platforms, and mission-critical data center environments. My experience includes incident analysis, disaster recovery planning, system performance optimization, and infrastructure documentation, always with a strong focus on reliability, compliance, and operational excellence. More recently, my focus has shifted toward DevOps and DevSecOps, where I work with automation, containerization, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and security integration. I have experience improving deployment workflows, reducing recovery times, enhancing monitoring and observability, and embedding security practices such as vulnerability management and access controls into delivery pipelines. Across all roles, I bring a practical, problem-solving mindset—whether supporting telecom core systems, maintaining high-availability data center infrastructure, or building secure, scalable cloud-native platforms. I am motivated by continuous learning and real-world application, and I aim to bridge operations, development, and security to deliver resilient, efficient, and secure systems.In parallel, actively exploring how AI and automation are reshaping modern IT operations, security, and software delivery.
