Certified AWS cloud crafting by day, curious AI automation self-hosting by night

I am a dedicated double certified AWS Engineer with 10 years of experience, deeply immersed in cloud technologies. My expertise lies in a broad array of AWS services, including EC2, ECS, RDS, and CloudFormation. I am adept at safeguarding cloud environments, facilitating migrations to Docker and ECS, and improving CI/CD workflows with Git and Bitbucket. While my primary focus is on AWS and cloud system administration, I also have a history in software engineering, particularly in Javascript-based (Node.js, React) and SQL. In my free time I like to employ no-code/low code tools to create AI driven automations on my self hosted home lab.
