AWS Platform Engineer — I make sure your cloud actually runs: reliably, securely, and without 3 AM alerts.
Based in Ukraine 🇺🇦 (UTC+3). Async-friendly. Professionally allergic to flaky CI pipelines, surprise AWS bills, and infrastructure held together by the memory of someone who left two years ago.
I work freelance with startups and scale-ups — migrations, platform engineering, security, cost optimisation. AWS is my main arena. I've also wrestled with GCP, DigitalOcean, and Hetzner, but AWS is where I live.
When I'm not doing that, I'm probably building something in code just for fun. Mostly private projects — the habit is real.

Real projects, real numbers — migrations, event-driven platforms, multi-account AWS, cost cuts. No fluff.
