About Amine

🚀 DevOps / Platform Engineer | Kubernetes · AWS · GCP · Azure

I help organizations design, build, and operate production-grade cloud platforms that are reliable, scalable, and secure. My approach is hands-on and pragmatic: turning Kubernetes, CI/CD, and DevOps practices into enablers for engineering teams, not constraints.

What I typically work on:

🔁 CI/CD & GitOps automation
Designing CI/CD and GitOps workflows (ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) that streamline releases, reduce operational risk, and support fast, controlled deployments.

☁️ Cloud platforms & containerization
Building and operating Kubernetes platforms (EKS, GKE, AKS, on-premise) on AWS, GCP, and Azure supporting containerization, platform modernization, and cloud migrations.

📊 Reliability, observability & SRE
Implementing monitoring and observability (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog) to detect issues early, improve availability, and strengthen platform resilience.

🔐 Cloud security by design
Embedding cloud security and compliance into platforms and delivery pipelines from day one (IAM, Vault, Kyverno, policy-as-code).

⚙️ Infrastructure as Code
Automating infrastructure provisioning with Terraform and Terragrunt to keep environments consistent and maintainable as platforms scale.

Whether you are modernizing a platform, migrating to the cloud, scaling Kubernetes, or improving delivery speed and reliability, I bring a pragmatic, hands-on approach focused on real operational outcomes.

Experience

  • Freelance
    Cloud & DevOps / Platform Engineer (Freelance)
    February 2017 - Today (9 years and 6 months)
    Engaged across enterprise environments to design, build, and operate production-critical cloud platforms on AWS, GCP, and Azure, focused on concrete outcomes: faster delivery, higher reliability, lower cost.

    Selected achievements:

    - Migrated legacy on-premise and multi-regional workloads to containerized, cloud-native architectures (EKS, GKE, AKS) across 3 continents (EMEA, AMER, ASIA).
    - Built and operated production Kubernetes platforms serving 300+ projects, with multi-tenancy, automated upgrades, and traffic management (Istio, Helm).
    - Standardized provisioning with reusable Terraform / Terragrunt modules and an internal registry, cutting setup time by ~70% and eliminating configuration drift.
    - Designed end-to-end CI/CD and GitOps workflows (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, ArgoCD), reducing deployment lead time by 60% with automated rollback.
    - Implemented observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog) that cut MTTR by ~45% and improved availability.
    - Led a FinOps initiative reducing cloud spend by 50% through right-sizing and resource optimization.
    - Embedded cloud security and compliance (IAM, HashiCorp Vault, Kyverno, policy-as-code) across 15+ application teams.
    - Validated resilience through chaos engineering (LitmusChaos) and disaster-recovery testing against SLA targets.
    - Primary escalation point for complex production incidents; trained 6 regional engineering teams.
