01 / About

Building infrastructure that holds up

Junior Cloud & DevOps Engineer with a Software Engineering degree from ESPRIT, specializing in cloud infrastructure, DevOps automation, and migration strategy.

Across three DevOps and cloud internships and my own projects, I have worked with Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD, GitOps, monitoring, and multi-cloud deployments across AWS, GCP, OCI, and Azure.

I build reliable, secure, and cost-effective systems, from event-driven AWS services to production-minded Kubernetes migrations.

Looyas · Final internship — end-of-studies project · Tunisia

  • Designed and built a Unified Migration & Deployment Engine automating workload migration across GCP and OCI, handling 5–20 Kubernetes namespaces and 20–50 object storage buckets per run
  • Orchestrated Kubernetes workload migration (GKE, OKE) with Velero for backup and restore strategies
  • Automated object storage synchronization using rclone and cloud CLIs across GCP and OCI
  • Implemented rollback strategies and validation pipelines to ensure safe, repeatable migrations
  • Authored infrastructure-as-code with Terraform for cloud-agnostic deployments
  • 2clouds bridged by one engine (GCP → OCI)
  • ~85%less hands-on effort per migration run
  • 0unvalidated cutovers — every run rollback-gated

Petopia — Private Cloud on OpenStack & Kubernetes

Built a private cloud platform from the ground up, then deployed a full-stack application on top of it.

  • Installed and configured OpenStack from scratch: Nova, Neutron, Cinder, and Keystone
  • Provisioned VMs on that cloud and built a Kubernetes cluster with Ansible automation
  • Deployed through GitOps workflows with ArgoCD for continuous delivery
  • Built Petopia itself — Angular, Spring Boot, JWT auth — with real-time listings and request management
  • 4OpenStack services stood up (Nova, Neutron, Cinder, Keystone)
  • ~12 minfrom bare VMs to a running 3-node cluster
  • 1 committo deploy or roll back, via ArgoCD GitOps

TechnologiesOpenStack, Kubernetes, Ansible, ArgoCD, Angular, Spring Boot, JWT, Docker

Serverless Image Processing Pipeline on AWS

Built an event-driven image processing pipeline using managed AWS services, with resilient processing and observable delivery.

  • Configured S3 uploads to publish events to SQS, with Lambda processing image resize and watermark operations
  • Orchestrated validation, resizing, watermarking, and storage with AWS Step Functions
  • Stored image metadata in DynamoDB and exposed pre-signed upload URLs through API Gateway
  • Served processed images through CloudFront and monitored pipeline health with CloudWatch metrics and alarms
  • 6managed AWS services in one pipeline
  • 0servers to provision or maintain
