Cloud engineer at Ellucian

## About

Enthusiastic and adaptable Cloud Engineer with experience in Linux administration, cloud automation, and DevOps practices\. At Ellucian, I manage production and non\-production server environments, oversee incident resolution, and ensure system security through regular patching and monitoring\. My expertise extends to EC2 instance management, Kubernetes \(K3s, Rancher, K8s\) upgrades, and designing Datadog dashboards for real\-time monitoring\. I’ve led modernization projects such as the SMTP migration, leveraging Terraform, Ansible, and Shell scripting to automate environment setup and maintenance\. My automation initiatives include S3 key rotation, DKIM/SPF authentication validation, dynamic EBS volume expansion, EBS/EFS backups and restores, and user auditing—using a mix of Python, Jenkins, PowerShell, and AWS tools\. I am passionate about learning new technologies and solving complex challenges, with hands\-on experience gained through hackathons and academic projects like blockchain\-based transcript preservation and deep learning\-based face detection\. Outside of work, I enjoy assisting in family’s gifting business, traveling, and solving Rubik’s cubes, all of which fuel my problem\-solving mindset and curiosity\. Let’s connect if you’d like to collaborate on cloud modernization, automation, or innovative tech solutions\!
