I’m Erick Lima,
a DevOps Engineer with nearly 7 years of production experience supporting, automating, and optimizing enterprise cloud architecture. I have deployed containerized AWS ECS and EKS applications through Terraform and AWS CDK for millions of users in several AWS accounts and on-premise environments, leveraging GitOps CI/CD, and DevOps principles.
Why I can help you.
Automation is not only my job, it's a joy. I have the conviction that everything we put our hand to should be done with all our might. There are few things better than to enjoy good food, good drink, and to find satisfaction in work since these things are gifts from God (Ecclesiates 2:24). I push myself to be better and better than I was yesterday, last month, and the years before.
In less "TedTalk"-y words, I have worked with top companies like Warner Bros., MGM, and Amazon. I have worked with the top tools in the DevOps space like Terraform, Cloudformation, GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, ECS, Kubernetes, EC2, Lambda, DynamoDB, RDS, Python, Bash, Javascript, and more! I have earned an AWS Cloud Solutions Architect - Associate certification and am pursuing the professional level certification, as well as the Google Certified Kubernetes Administrator certification.
What I can do for you.
- Automation with Python and Bash
- Cloud Infrastructure Design
- Disaster Recovery
- Observability and Telemetry
- Containerization
My latest Work.
