About Me

I'm a Google Cloud Certified Professional Cloud Architect and DevOps Engineering Lead with over seven years of dedicated experience designing, building, and maintaining secure, high-performance cloud infrastructure. My passion lies in modern systems engineering—creating automated GitOps-driven deployment engines, hardening Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) clusters, and writing clean, scalable declarative infrastructure with Terraform.

This site, vazid.live, is my digital home. It is a log of my professional engineering journey, a platform for sharing GCP architectural breakthroughs, and a testament to optimizing systems for maximum reliability and minimum cost.

Core Technologies

I specialize in the GCP ecosystem and DevOps tools that form the backbone of modern enterprise-grade, cloud-native environments:

Google Cloud (GCP)
GKE & Kubernetes
Terraform (IaC)
ArgoCD & GitOps
Cloud Build / CI-CD
Cloud Run & Serverless
Shared VPC & DNS
Docker & GCR/AR
GCP Security & IAM
Cloud Monitoring & Logging

Beyond the Code

When I'm not architecting cloud systems, you can find me analyzing infrastructure telemetry or exploring new places, camera in hand. Travelling provides a fresh perspective that translates directly to solving complex distributed systems problems. I'm also an active technical blogger, sharing Google Cloud optimization tricks, shell scripting secrets, and Kubernetes orchestration strategies.
