Cloud

• Designed, implemented, and administered 6 ETL/ELT pipelines, utilizing Google BigQuery, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, Shell scripting, PL/pgSQL, and Transact‑SQL, integrating data for efficient Python API processing.
• Automated GIS SaaS application deployment, data processing, and reporting system using GitHub Actions CI/CD, Python, Bash, and SQL.
• Automated 100 critical data backups using Barman, Google Cloud, Bash, and Python, ensuring data integrity across databases.
• Deployed and maintained 20 Docker containerized applications, troubleshooting with Podman and Kubernetes, and managing R‑based apps on Google Cloud and AWS.
• Prevented security breaches by leading access management initiatives, utilizing M365, 1Password, Red Hat SSO, and OKTA SSO.
• Managed and troubleshooted 8 WireGuard VPN and IPSEC VPN connections, ensuring secure communication across Google Cloud and Linux systems.
• Optimized budget costs 10 times with zero loss in productivity for the Saudi Arabia company by reimagining the overall infrastructure, eliminating unnecessary services, and relocating from the AWS cloud.
• Built email as a platform capability — three providers with failover, delivery webhooks, send and delivery logging, templating and campaigns — behind a startup check that will not boot without one.
• Provisioned Azure infrastructure as code with Bicep — Container Apps, PostgreSQL Flexible Server, Front Door/WAF and networking — across the development, staging and production environments.
• Built GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines with a distroless production frontend image and multi‑environment promotion.
• Owned end‑to‑end deployments of the platform to Azure, managing releases across development, staging and production environments.
• Configured database backup retention as infrastructure‑as‑code, then audited the recovery position and documented the restore procedure — naming the remaining gaps rather than leaving them to be found during an incident.
• Provided round‑the‑clock 24/7 infrastructure support for an IPTV/OTT streaming platform, administering ~1,000 servers plus client‑owned systems for global customers in China, the US and Germany.
• As one of the first hires, designed and built the entire core infrastructure and supporting processes from scratch for a green‑energy SaaS startup, laying the foundation for rapid growth.
• Automated the provisioning of a second server on a second cloud provider, creating the firewall before the machine so it is born behind one, with both providers' firewalls written directly against their REST APIs to avoid a third‑party collection.

This work is part of what we offer as DevOps & CI/CD Automation, Cloud Infrastructure & Migration, Security & Access Management, System Administration, Infrastructure as Code, Networking & VPN Setup, Site Reliability & Monitoring and Backend & API Development.
