Position: DevOps engineer

English level: fluent
Years of experience: 4

Built an application monitoring system that cut down our resources by 30%. This was built using Grafana Dashboards and Prometheus.
Having transitioned from Backend Engineering, I have developed a keen sense for developing scalable and reliable systems. Some of my most daring DevOps projects are described below:

Banking USSD:
USSD is a platform that generates large amounts of short time which also receives a high volume of traffic,, I had to leverage the power of Grafan, Prometheus, and Loki to ensure service reliability always. I made sure to send alerts to relevant teams when issues arise.
The service was also constantly updated which meant Continuous deployment was an important part of our architecture. Using Jenkins and Ansible, I deployed a CI/CD pipeline stable enough to manage constant testing and changes.
Tools: Jenkins, Ansible, Docker, Grafana, Loki, Git, Prometheus, Kubernetes, Docker, Load Balancing.

Swift Parser:
The swift messaging system enables banks from all over the world to send transaction messages to each other. Messages from Swift are usually cryptic and needed a lot of skilled experts to decrypt. The solution was a system that could decrypt these messages and present them in clear and human-readable reports. Sitting on an AWS EC2 instance, I leveraged the power of serverless functions to periodically fetch and decrypt messages, ELK fro logging, and Prometheus to capture relevant system data.
Tools: AWS, Prometheus, Grafana, Elk, Docker, Git, Windows/Ubuntu

I'm Currently a senior Backend/DevOps Engineer on my team and spend time mentoring Junior teammates.
I working on my DevOps certification exam with AWS and would be certified in a few weeks.
Challenging projects.
