Site Reliability Engineer for regulated industries

AI-assisted operations for cloud reliability and cloud security on GCP, from incident response to FinOps. My experience spans regulated industries: public sector, finance and medical devices. I use evidence to guide changes.

Selected work

Operations patterns from regulated industries

Incident root-cause analysis

I restored service reliability when production behavior diverged from healthy-looking checks. I traced logs, deployment state and request paths, verified the fix, and documented where my first diagnosis was wrong.

Incident response · Observability

Cloud security governance

I brought cloud security controls into one reviewable pipeline in a regulated environment. I connected asset inventory, logging, risk triage and evidence reporting to give ongoing security work a clear trail.

Cloud migrations

I brought services from separate hosting environments into GCP. I planned DNS and traffic changes, checked service behavior and prepared rollback paths, bringing infrastructure under a shared operating model.

Migrations · GCP · Rollback

Cloud cost management (FinOps)

I reduced cloud waste without treating every billing drop as a saving. I compared billing with sustained usage, adjusted resource sizes and automated reports that separated real savings from currency effects and billing gaps.

AI ChatOps and model observability

I made cloud queries easier through AI ChatOps: conversational operations tools. I added read-only query boundaries and measured large language model (LLM) latency, failures and token use to guide changes rather than guess.

How I work

Evidence, approval and clear boundaries

Evidence before conclusions

I compare logs, deployment state and observed behavior before calling a problem resolved. If the evidence changes, I revise the diagnosis.

People approve lasting changes

I keep human approval in the path for irreversible changes. Automation can prepare a change; a person decides whether to apply it.

Clear data boundaries

I explain methods without exposing private systems or data. Public examples use public or synthetic material, with their limits stated.
