About Me

I am a junior DevOps engineer based in Cameroon, currently sharpening my skills through the NextGen Playground DevOps program — a hands-on training initiative focused on real-world cloud and infrastructure practices.

My journey into DevOps started with a genuine curiosity about how software gets built, shipped, and kept alive in production. Over the past year and a half, I've gone from understanding basic Linux commands to provisioning cloud infrastructure with Terraform, automating configuration with Ansible, and deploying containerized applications with Kubernetes.

I trained at Primus Learning, where I built a strong foundation in cloud computing, networking, and infrastructure fundamentals. I believe in learning by doing — every concept I study, I apply in a real project. My goal is to grow into a confident DevOps engineer who bridges the gap between development teams and reliable cloud infrastructure.

I thrive in collaborative environments and am passionate about automation, continuous improvement, and building systems that are scalable, secure, and efficient.

Projects

01 —

CI/CD Pipeline with GitHub Actions

Designed and implemented an automated deployment pipeline using GitHub Actions. The pipeline triggers on every git push, runs build steps, and deploys automatically — eliminating manual deployment entirely and reducing human error.

02 —

Cloud Infrastructure with Terraform

Provisioned cloud infrastructure on AWS using Terraform, following Infrastructure as Code principles. Defined compute instances, networking, and storage as reusable, version-controlled configuration files for repeatable deployments.
