Installing and Configuring Git
A
Final-year BSc IT student and DevOps Engineer with strong hands-on experience in AWS and cloud-native technologies. I focus on building, deploying, and automating reliable systems using modern DevOps practices.
I have practical experience working with Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration, Terraform and Ansible for infrastructure automation, and CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and AWS CodePipeline. I enjoy solving real-world problems related to deployment, scalability, and system reliability.
