About

Cloud and Software Engineer with a strong foundation in backend development, infrastructure automation, and cloud-native technologies. With hands-on experience in AWS, Docker, FastAPI, and Terraform, I’ve successfully delivered scalable solutions across startups and enterprise settings. My journey from fintech and NGO roles to leading IT projects has deepened my ability to solve real-world challenges through efficient architecture, continuous integration, and infrastructure as code. I’m passionate about building systems that are secure, reliable, and built for scale.
