For the past four years, I've worked as a DevOps and DevSecOps Engineer, mostly focused on Ethiopia’s national digital identity program. My job has been all about building, automating, and securing big, complicated infrastructure that keeps vital citizen services running.
I've rolled out cryptographic solutions with Thales Luna HSMs, hardened public portals with Web Application Firewalls, secured Kubernetes environments, and kept deployments smooth with CI/CD pipelines. Keeping production systems up and running has been a core part of my everyday work. Beyond that, I’ve set up security monitoring, managed incident response, deployed SIEMs, and integrated security checks straight into the software delivery process.
Now, I’m after new chances where I can use what I know about DevOps, cloud-native platforms, engineering, and security—ideally somewhere bigger, where I can grow and work on projects that actually make a difference.
What makes me unique is how I connect the dots between operations and security. I don’t just keep platforms running—I make sure they’re safe, too. Supporting a national identity system taught me the real meaning of balancing scale, reliability, and security. When you’re working with systems that thousands rely on, trust and resilience aren’t just boxes to check. They’re essential, and I know how to deliver them.
