Background

About Eric Keiss

I am an Entry-Level Cloud Engineer and AWS & DevOps Enthusiast with a strong foundation in cloud infrastructure, automation, and networking. Recently earning my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from National University, I have hands-on experience setting up and configuring AWS services, including VPC, EC2, RDS (MySQL), and SSH tunneling for secure cloud-hosted databases. My technical background includes Linux administration, Bash scripting, cloud security best practices, and cloud networking, and I am continuously expanding my expertise in CI/CD pipelines, Python scripting, and infrastructure as code (IaC). I am passionate about optimizing cloud environments and streamlining deployments through automation to enhance efficiency and scalability. My experience in DevOps, cloud computing, and system optimization is reinforced by hands-on academic projects, including designing AWS cloud infrastructure and developing a database management system for a tennis league. Additionally, my background as a Tool and Die Maker at General Motors has honed my problem-solving, troubleshooting, and automation skills—all of which are valuable in cloud engineering. I am eager to bring my technical expertise, problem-solving mindset, and passion for automation to a dynamic cloud engineering or DevOps role.
