/**/About

Hi, I'm Ali Aljaffer 🙋🏽‍♂️

Cloud Engineer & DevOps with a passion for automation, infrastructure as code, and building scalable systems. I'm mostly working on projects that utilize AWS services, but will be expanding to Google Cloud Platform pretty soon!

I built full-stack projects and I'm in the process of containerizing and migrating them to AWS, so I'm sharing my experience and case studies for each project as way of documenting the process for my future self. Check out the projects section for case studies, demos, screenshots, and architecture diagrams.
