Led the multi‑org AWS migration and networking/security cutover under a tight window. Coordinated routing, TGW, VPN, and service dependencies. Achieved seamless transition with zero unplanned outages.

DevOps Enablement & Delivery Acceleration

Mentored platform and product teams on IaC, CI/CD, and release workflows (Terraform, Sceptre, CloudFormation, Jenkins/CodePipeline). Improved deployment speed and reduced incident MTTR through better automation and incident response playbooks.
