Hi! I'm Vasa.
I'm a DevOps Engineer with previous experience in Software Development. I have 2.5 years of experience in Software Development and DevOps combined. As a DevOps Engineer, I specialize in working with AWS, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines. My expertise includes migrating applications to Docker containers, implementing scalable architectures on AWS EKS, and automating infrastructure provisioning using tools like Terraform and Ansible. I also leverage GitOps practices with ArgoCD to ensure efficient and reliable Kubernetes deployments, and I design secure AWS IAM roles and policies to maintain fine-grained access control.
Previously, as a Software Developer, I focused on building and maintaining microservice architectures using JavaScript/TypeScript and AWS Lambda with DynamoDB. I have experience optimizing backend performance, enhancing frontend components with React, and ensuring seamless integrations between cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional user experiences.
When Im not coding I like to spend my time walking my cat Dio 🐈 (he is orange and silly ), playing basketball, hanging out with my friends and reading books.

Devops Engineer
In 2023, I transitioned into a DevOps Engineer role at the same company, diving deeper into cloud infrastructure, automation, and Kubernetes. I have optimized infrastructure by migrating Node.js and Python applications into Docker containers, significantly reducing costs and streamlining resource usage. I set up CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, making deployments faster, more reliable, and easier to maintain. Working with Kubernetes has been both challenging and rewarding, as I deployed scalable architectures on AWS EKS with features like auto-scaling using Karpenter. Terraform has remained my go-to tool for provisioning and managing infrastructure, while Ansible has helped automate configuration tasks across environments. I’ve also embraced GitOps practices with ArgoCD for declarative configuration and automated Kubernetes deployments, and I’ve implemented secure IAM roles and policies to maintain fine-grained access control. I’m constantly seeking to improve my skills and stay up-to-date with the latest industry trends, ensuring I deliver impactful solutions to every project.
August 2023 – PresentSoftware Developer
In 2020 I have started to learn software development, and in 2022 I took on my first Software Developer role, where I worked on a microservice-based architecture. Using Node.js/TypeScript with AWS Lambda and DynamoDB. I have also worked with React and Next.js on the front-end, making sure it was user-friendly and accessible.
June 2022 – August 2023Computer Technician
I began my tech career as a computer technician back in 2019. From diagnosing hardware issues to fixing and replacing parts, I became the go-to person for getting systems back up and running. I also handled software reinstallations and configurations, ensuring everything worked smoothly for my clients. It was a hands-on role that taught me a lot about troubleshooting and problem-solving.
September 2019 – May 2022Serverless Microservices
Serverless Microservices made with Node.js/Typescript using AWS Lambda functions and RDS as a database. This project is also using Github Actions to automate the build and deployment process, Terraform is used for the infrastructure management.
Gitops Deployment
Two Github Actions pipelines, one is for the Terraform and the second one is for the Gitops. The pipelines use ArgoCD and EKS to deploy the Gitops. EKS cluster is monitored by grafana and prometheus.
Jenkins-Java-EKS CI/CD Pipeline
Jenkins pipeline that uses trivy, sonarqube, maven, docker, k8s, grafana and prometheus for monitoring. The pipeline builds and deploys an Java App to an EKS cluster. EKS, EC2 and the rest of aws infrastructure are managed by terraform.
Jenkins Pipeline for Express App
Jenkins Pipeline for Express App is a CI/CD pipeline that builds and deploys an Express App to an ECS service.
EarthSensor
EarthSensor provides air pollution and weather information for cities around the world. The app fetches data from the Aqicn REST API and presents it in a user-friendly format using graphs.
Interior Painting Business
An landing page for the interior painting business. Made with TypeScript and React.
MovieLibrary
An AI based tool for movie and tv shows searching and recommendations.
