I migrate production to AWS and keep it observable.

AWS DevOps Engineer. I build the pipelines, infrastructure code and dashboards that keep production applications available, from the first server move to the last health check.

About

Infrastructure that is easy to watch and quick to recover.

I design, automate and run AWS infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines for production applications. My daily toolset is Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible and Linux, with Prometheus, Grafana and Loki for monitoring. I started in production monitoring and support, then moved into cloud engineering, so I design for observability and fast recovery from the start.

Migrations, pipelines and platforms I have built.

Production migration to AWS

Integrated Active Monitoring · 2025 to present

Led the move of production workloads from CloudPE and on-premises infrastructure to AWS. I planned the strategy, mapped dependencies, validated each system and ran the production cutover with minimal downtime.

  1. phase 1Dependency analysis
  2. phase 2Migration plan
  3. phase 3Rehost to EC2
  4. phase 4Validation
  5. phase 5Production cutover
  • Rehosted physical and virtual Linux servers to EC2 with lift-and-shift, keeping applications available and data intact.
  • Built the target environment on EC2, VPC, ECS, EFS, Route 53, IAM, CloudWatch and Application Load Balancers, following cloud security best practices.
  • Exposed applications through an Nginx reverse proxy with SSL/TLS, DNS routing and load balancing.
  • EC2
  • VPC
  • ECS
  • EFS
  • Route 53
  • IAM
  • CloudWatch
  • ALB
  • Nginx

Enterprise CI/CD pipeline automation

  • End-to-end pipeline from GitHub to production through Jenkins, Docker, Amazon ECR and AWS Systems Manager.
  • Version-controlled image tags with Docker Compose, so every update is repeatable.
  • Health checks and rollback strategies that make releases safer.
  • Jenkins
  • Docker
  • ECR
  • SSM
  • Docker Compose
  • GitHub

AWS infrastructure automation

  • Provisioning, configuration and deployment automated with Terraform and Ansible.
  • VPC networking, IAM roles, security groups, Route 53 and load balancers defined as code.
  • CloudWatch monitoring and alerting for infrastructure health.
  • Terraform
  • Ansible
  • EC2
  • VPC
  • IAM
  • Route 53
  • EFS
  • CloudWatch

Grafana white-label monitoring platform

  • Custom branding by modifying frontend assets and configuration, delivering an enterprise white-label product.
  • Metrics and logs centralised with Prometheus, Loki and Promtail.
  • PostgreSQL backend, role-based access control, alerting and dashboard management.
  • Nginx reverse proxy with SSL/TLS, deployed with Docker on Linux.
  • Grafana
  • Prometheus
  • Loki
  • Promtail
  • PostgreSQL
  • Docker
  • Nginx

EKS GitOps platform

Lab project Terraform · EKS · ArgoCD

A reference platform that takes a commit to a running Kubernetes workload without anyone holding long-lived cloud keys. Git is the source of truth, and rollback is a revert.

  1. ciGitHub Actions (OIDC)
  2. registryAmazon ECR
  3. syncArgoCD
  4. runEKS across 3 AZs
  5. observePrometheus, Grafana, Loki
  • Terraform modules for a three-AZ VPC, the EKS cluster, managed node groups and IAM roles for service accounts.
  • GitHub Actions authenticates to AWS with OIDC and pushes images to ECR, so no access keys are stored in the repository.
  • ArgoCD keeps the cluster in sync with Git, with rollback by reverting a commit.
  • Prometheus, Grafana and Loki installed with Helm, with alerts sent through SNS.
