Professional Summary
Cloud & DevOps engineer focused on secure Azure infrastructures and Infrastructure as Code. For over three years I have worked daily with Terraform, Azure DevOps and GitHub, building cloud platforms for enterprise clients across industries, from food and chemicals to legal. AI tools and agents are part of my everyday toolkit. This is backed by solid security expertise (Cybersecurity Architect Expert, Zero Trust) and hands-on consulting embedded directly in client teams.
