Summary
I began my IT career in 2016 as a System Administrator at C-TEL Info System, where I managed asset allocation, software installations, and VPN connections. Transitioning to Oracle BI Administration, I developed comprehensive dashboards, reports, and policies. Over the past 5.10 years, I have expanded my expertise into Azure Cloud Engineering. I specialize in configuring and managing Azure Virtual Machines, Virtual Networks, Network Security Groups (NSGs), and implementing robust security measures. Skilled in integration using Logic Apps, Function Apps, Data Lake Storage Gen2, Azure Load Balancers, and automation with Terraform and Azure DevOps. My recent focus has been on Azure Data Factory (ADF), and Azure Databricks, and enhancing my Python skills. Leveraging AI tools, I balance professional growth with managing our family business, driving digital initiatives effectively.
