Hi - I'm Akuphe DieudonneDEVOPS ENGINEER

Automating infrastructure, optimizing cloud costs, and building bulletproof CI/CD pipelines. I turn complex deployments into one-click operations and transform "it works on my machine" into "it works everywhere."

Akuphe Dieudonne - DevOps & Cloud Engineer

About Me

I'm a passionate and skilled DevOps, DevSecOps, SRE, and Cloud Engineer with a solid foundation in infrastructure provisioning, automation, and system monitoring. I hold multiple certifications in AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Linux.

With hands-on experience using tools like Jenkins, Terraform, and Ansible, I've streamlined CI/CD workflows and automated deployments for faster, more reliable software delivery. I specialize in managing and monitoring scalable cloud environments on AWS and maintaining high availability across Kubernetes clusters.

I've implemented robust monitoring and observability stacks using ELK, Grafana, and Datadog to ensure real-time visibility and performance tuning. I also leverage GitOps practices to manage infrastructure as code efficiently.

My background includes integrating automated testing into CI/CD pipelines and developing custom scripts to reduce manual effort and increase operational efficiency.

Armed with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a strong GPA, I'm committed to continuous learning and always staying ahead in the cloud and DevOps space. I'm currently seeking opportunities to contribute to impactful projects in DevOps, SRE, and cloud engineering.

Production Grade Complete CICD Pipeline with Jenkins

Personal Project
    Project Cover

    End-to-end pipeline on AWS us-east-1 that takes code from commit to production with safety and visibility. A GitHub CI webhook triggers Jenkins to run Maven builds, Checkstyle, and SonarQube quality gates, then publish versioned artifacts to Nexus. Ansible handles deployments to Dev and Staging automatically, with a manual approval gate for Production. Slack posts status at every stage. Prometheus (metrics) and Splunk (logs) feed Grafana dashboards for real-time monitoring and alerting. Integrated with Jira for traceability across the release flow.

    Multi-Cloud Weather Tracker App with Disaster Recovery using Terraform

    Personal Project
      Project Cover

      This project involves deploying a weather tracker application across AWS and Azure, incorporating disaster recovery capabilities. The app’s front-end (HTML, CSS, JS) is hosted statically on AWS S3 (with CloudFront for CDN) and Azure Blob Storage.

      Cloud-Native Social App Deployment on AWS ECS with Terraform and GitHub Actions

      Personal Project
        Project Cover

        This project demonstrates how to take a real web application from commit to production on AWS with zero local commands. Every push to main triggers a fully automated pipeline that builds a Docker image, stores it in Amazon ECR, provisions or updates AWS infrastructure with Terraform, deploys to Amazon ECS Fargate behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB), and finally runs a smoke test against the live URL.

        Auto-Scaling Web Application with CI/CD Pipeline on AWS

        Personal Project
          Project Cover

          Deploy a highly available, scalable, and secure web application on Amazon EC2 using Terraform, Ansible, and AWS DevOps tools.

          Secure IAM Key Rotation, Storage, and Deletion Pipeline

          Personal Project
            Project Cover

            An automated pipeline that uses IAM, Lambda, EventBridge, Secrets Manager, SNS, and DynamoDB to rotate IAM access keys, securely store them in Secrets Manager, notify stakeholders via SNS, log all key lifecycle activities in DynamoDB for visibility, and automatically delete old keys — all on a recurring schedule.

            Data Pipeline for Processing CSV Files Using S3, Lambda, Glue, and QuickSight

            Personal Project
              Project Cover

              This project involves building a serverless data pipeline on AWS for processing CSV files. The pipeline automates the ingestion, transformation, and visualization of data.
