About

I am a Cloud and DevOps expert, consultant, and trainer. What I started in 2016 as a necessity to deploy my own startup’s infrastructures, quickly turned into a lifelong passion for Cloud technologies. By 2018, I discovered the power of Docker and automation, eventually becoming a Kubernetes enthusiast and specialist. My dual background as an entrepreneur and engineer allows me to master a large range of technologies. Started as a full-stack developer (Python, JS, PHP), I since specialized in AWS Cloud and DevOps technologies (Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, Observability). Today, I lead large-scale cloud migrations and modernization projects, currently serving as an AWS DevOps SME at National Bank of Canada. Beyond infrastructure, I am at the forefront of the AI revolution, designing Agentic AI architectures. I leverage RAG pipelines, LLMs, and frameworks like LangChain/LangGraph and AWS Bedrock to build autonomous, intelligent systems that solve complex business challenges. Core Expertise: Cloud Architecture: AWS (Pro & Specialty Certified), Multi-account governance, and Security. DevOps & Platform Engineering: Kubernetes (CKA, CKS), Terraform, Github Actions, and scalable CI/CD. Agentic AI: Designing AI Agents, RAG workflows, and LLM-powered applications. Mentorship: Temporary Teacher at ESMT and founder of a DevOps newsletter dedicated to democratizing tech best practices. I am driven by a passion for continuous learning and knowledge sharing. Whether it's optimizing a global cloud infrastructure or building the next generation of AI agents, I focus on creating scalable, secure, and future-proof technological landscapes. Let’s connect to discuss Cloud, DevOps, or the future of Agentic AI!
