Umair

Cloud DevOps Engineer with hands-on experience in AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform. Experienced in managing cloud infrastructure, automating deployments, and building CI/CD pipelines. Comfortable working with Infrastructure as Code, Linux, containers, monitoring, and cloud security. Have worked on AWS and Azure environments and solving infrastructure and deployment-related problems.

DevOps Engineer at SkyOps (2025-02 – Present)

• Deploy and manage containerized apps on Kubernetes clusters across AWS and Azure environments for production workloads.
• Built self-hosted GitHub Actions runners with event-driven scaling (Lambda + Launch Templates + Auto Scaling Groups), which cut our CI infrastructure spend by around 80%.
• Write and maintain Terraform modules used across AWS and Azure — moving to modular templates cut manual provisioning mistakes by roughly 70%.
• Run CI/CD pipelines across GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, and Azure DevOps, with Bash scripting tying together build and deploy steps.
• Manage ECS, EKS, S3, CloudFront, and ALB/NLB workloads with Auto Scaling for day-to-day reliability.
• Set up Prometheus/Grafana/CloudWatch monitoring so issues get caught before they turn into incidents.
• Moved secrets out of pipelines and into AWS Secrets Manager and SSM Parameter Store across every environment.
• Handle Azure-side networking and access — VNet, NSG rules, Azure AD — for a few different project environments.

Cloud Computing Trainee (AWS & Azure) at TEVTA (2024-11 – 2025-02)

• Worked hands-on with 10+ core AWS services (EC2, VPC, S3, IAM, RDS, Route 53, CloudWatch, EKS, ECS) through structured labs.
• Provisioned infrastructure with Terraform to get comfortable with IaC fundamentals before using them in production.
• Built a working foundation in core Azure services and general cloud concepts alongside the AWS track.

Cloud Solution Architect Bootcamp at Contour Software (2022-11 – 2023-02)

• Deployed and configured core AWS infrastructure (EC2, S3, RDS, VPC — subnets, security groups, route tables) under a senior architect, which is where I first saw what production cloud architecture actually looks like.
• Set up IAM roles for least-privilege access and CloudWatch/CloudTrail monitoring, and provisioned repeatable environments with Terraform. Also configured Auto Scaling and ALB/NLB load balancers to handle variable traffic.
