Currently, as a Cloud Practice Engineer II at Rackspace, I collaborate with engineering teams on a variety of projects, including large-scale migrations and the implementation of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using CloudFormation and Terraform. My responsibilities include developing CI/CD pipelines, managing configuration, and leveraging containerization to optimize project delivery. Additionally, my role involves Linux/Windows administration and automating deployments using Bash, PowerShell, and Python. Previously, at Atos, I drove continuous deployment improvements, automated responses for recurring issues, and implemented containerization technologies to enhance service scalability and reliability. My tenure at Vodafone International Services (_VOIS_) involved automating Redmine ticket flows, integrating AWS services, and developing scripts to automate manual tasks, resulting in significant cost savings and improved system efficiency. I hold an Advanced Cloud DevOps Nanodegree from Udacity and a B.Sc. in Electronics and Communications Engineering from Alexandria University, where I graduated with distinction. My certifications include Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA), AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate, and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner. My technical expertise spans web servers, virtualization, containerization, orchestration, CI/CD tools, scripting languages, cloud providers, databases, and version control systems. Throughout my career, I have successfully completed projects such as integrating AWS with Redmine, automating weekly reports using Python and Selenium, and implementing JFrog artifacts cleanup automation with JTE. I am passionate about continuous improvement and adopting emerging technologies. My strong troubleshooting abilities and commitment to excellence align well with the goals .I am eager to discuss how my skills and experiences make me a strong fit for the DevOps Engineer role.
