A little bit about Me

Hello, and Welcome! I’m Dominick, a former construction foreman lead turned AWS Cloud Engineer. Leveraging 2 years of hands-on infrastructure delivery, I now design and deploy scalable, secure, cost optimized, automated cloud platforms using Terraform IaC, and AWS best practices. And with me, I've brought some skills I've honed along the way.
Project Management & Scheduling– Built and delivered multi-million-dollar projects on-time and under-budget.
Budgeting & Cost Control– Managed materials & labor cost forecasts, reducing waste by 12%.
Cross-Team Communication– Coordinated with architects, engineers,inspectors, and subcontractors across 5–7 trades.

As an AWS Cloud Engineer, My duty is to design, build, deploy, and maintain secure infrastructure systems, With heavy focus on cost optimization and operational efficiency. With these goals in mind, I have tailored my skillset to fulfill these requirements. Specializing in Terraform Infrastructure as Code deployment allows me to build consistent, repeatable, secure systems with increased agility and cost saving benefits. While my experience in creating gitlab CI-CD pipelines positions me to automate infrastructure deployment while increasing disaster recoverability via stored code and Versioning.
