Cloud & DevOps Engineer | I turn 3 AM-breaking deployments into 1-min pipelines with AWS + Ansible + Terraform | Building security-first AI agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore | AI Governance on AWS certified
I build infrastructure that doesn't break at 3 AM.
15 years running a cybercafe taught me something I still carry into every deployment: real users don't care about your stack. They care that things just work. That pulled me from managing physical machines into automating cloud infrastructure, and it's why I'm particular about building systems that hold up under pressure.
Today I help remote teams (UK, US, EMEA) stop SSH-ing into prod. I turn manual, 3 AM-breaking deploys into 1-min automated pipelines: Lint → Dry-Run → Deploy with GitHub Actions + Ansible + Terraform.
Ansible is where I've gone deepest. I've built full multi-service deployment pipelines, debugged real Nginx and MySQL production issues, and turned that experience into free training that engineers across Africa are actually using.

🔗 https://github.com/nkydigitech/agentcode
Strands agent running Claude Opus 4.6 on AWS Bedrock AgentCore — every tool call secured with a different auth pattern (SigV4, OAuth2 M2M), per-request tool authorization via Amazon Verified Permissions, and an agent architected to decline rather than guess. Built from the AWS re:Invent SEC307 security workshop — deployed, tested, and documented with 64 real AWS console screenshots.

Lint → Dry-Run → Deploy template reused as team standard. 6 checks before prod, zero SSH. Real run logs: failed 2m 11s → passing 1m 18s.
🔗 https://github.com/nkydigitech/production-ready-ai-agents-eks
Multi-agent AI system on Kubernetes — 7 agents (customer, supervisor, RAG, memory, knowledge-graph, MCP, strands) deployed to both minikube and a real AWS EKS cluster. Cost-guard discipline kept the entire project at $0.55 of a $1.00 budget.
