Bio

Ali F. is a DevOps and Cloud Engineer with over 5 years of experience across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD automation, and containerized deployments. He works with AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Docker, building CI/CD pipelines across GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Jenkins, and managing containerized workloads on EKS, ECS, and AKS with Helm, Kustomize, and ArgoCD. His practices include DevSecOps controls with Trivy and SonarQube, IAM/RBAC and least-privilege access management, and observability through Prometheus, Grafana, and CloudWatch. On a FedRAMP Moderate cloud platform project, he helped build a private-by-default architecture using Application Gateway WAF, Key Vault, and Terraform, and created secure deployment workflows with OIDC federation to reduce reliance on long-lived credentials. On an AWS cloud-native DevSecOps platform, he improved release cycle time by 40% and reduced manual deployment intervention by 80% through GitOps-based delivery with ArgoCD and standardized deployment manifests. He holds a Bachelor's in Computer Science from Arid Agriculture University. He is well suited for DevOps or cloud infrastructure roles involving secure, regulated cloud environments, GitOps delivery, and CI/CD automation at scale.
