Experience & Education

DevSecOps Team Lead

Jan 2026 – Present

Webeet · Berlin, Germany (Remote)

  • Responsible for the design, automation, and reliability of Webeet’s AWS cloud platform, supporting fast and stable software delivery while keeping infrastructure costs under control.
  • Design and operate cloud infrastructure using Terraform and CloudFormation, applying infrastructure-as-code practices to ensure consistency and traceability across environments.
  • Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) that automate build, test, and deployment workflows and reduce release friction.
  • Drive the adoption of Docker and Kubernetes (EKS) to support scalable services, rolling deployments, and efficient resource usage.
  • Monitor and optimize cloud spending through continuous cost analysis, right-sizing, and capacity planning using AWS-native tooling.
  • Integrate security into delivery processes with automated vulnerability scanning, secrets management, and access controls to reduce operational risk.
  • Lead and mentor DevSecOps engineers while working closely with development, QA, data, and security teams to improve platform stability and delivery speed.

DevSecOps Engineer - Project Coordinator

Sep 2025 – Dec 2025

Webeet · Berlin, Germany (Remote)

  • Led & mentored multiple DevSecOps intern squads (12-15 People) providing architectural direction & prioritization without hands‑on coding.
  • Ran structured office hours (2×/week) + ad‑hoc coaching to unblock Terraform / AWS / CI/CD and build autonomous problem solving.
  • Built onboarding playbooks, review rubric & runbooks: cut first‑PR turnaround from ~3 days to <1.5 and reduced revision cycles via structured PR reviews.
  • Standardized secure patterns (network segmentation, least‑privilege IAM, pipeline security) & enforced quality gates (plan, lint, security scan) in GitHub Actions.
  • Introduced decision & escalation logs + lightweight retros → fewer repeat questions & stronger knowledge retention.
  • Fostered psychological safety & continuous improvement through weekly knowledge shares and daily Stand-ups.
