• Lead cloud migration and application modernization initiatives, moving applications from on‑premises and legacy cloud environments to AWS, with emphasis on ECS/Fargate, container‑based services, serverless architectures, APIs, and cloud‑native modernization patterns.

• Design and build Infrastructure as Code using AWS CDK and TypeScript, including reusable L2/L3 constructs, stack composition, cross‑account deployment patterns, AWS Organizations guardrails, and standardized ECS/Fargate service constructs.

• Engineer secure DevSecOps and CI/CD capabilities, including pipeline design and standardization, automated security and quality gates, IAM policies, AWS Config, CloudTrail, Security Hub, CSPM tooling, and cloud compliance controls.

• Serve as a trusted technical advisor to client teams, leading discovery sessions, architecture reviews, technical workshops, paired‑programming sessions, and structured knowledge transfer to strengthen client capabilities across AWS, CDK/TypeScript, DevSecOps, ECS/Fargate, and cloud‑native engineering.
