AWS DevOps Engineer – Professional | Salesforce Admin (4x certified) | Writing about Kubernetes, Terraform & CI/CD

I moved from 4+ years in operations into Salesforce administration and AWS Cloud/DevOps, and I write about what I learn while building things. I hold 11 certifications, including AWS Certified DevOps Engineer – Professional, Salesforce Platform Administrator I & II, Platform App Builder, Agentforce Specialist, and GitHub Actions. I'm a Trailhead Double Star Ranger with 250+ badges. Here I post practical guides on Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, CI/CD and DevSecOps, plus Salesforce DevOps with Copado and GitHub Actions. I'm open to Salesforce Admin, CRM support and DevOps/Cloud roles and can join immediately.
