PLATFORM ENGINEERING · DEVSECOPS · CLOUD AUTOMATION
I build secure systems that ship, scale, and save money.
Platform Engineer with 4+ years of professional experience building secure cloud infrastructure, automation tooling, backend platforms, and AI-enabled security systems across regulated enterprise environments.
WHAT I DO
Infrastructure engineering with a security-first operating model.
My work sits at the intersection of platform engineering, cloud automation, security, and backend systems. I translate operational and compliance constraints into infrastructure, pipelines, APIs, and controls that teams can actually run.
Experience includes HIPAA-regulated healthcare, enterprise security collaboration, SOC 2-aligned platform controls, and production engineering patterns informed by PCI DSS and CCPA requirements.
