I Cut AI Inference & Cloud Compute Costs 60–80% — Then Operate at 99.9% Uptime
Every dollar lost to un-cached vector queries, idle A100 VRAM allocations, and cross-AZ transit tax drains your runway. I deploy self-hosted GPU inference networks, right-sized Karpenter spot fleets, and SOC 2-ready SRE platforms for US startups with dedicated PST/EST working overlap.
How I Add Value for US Startups
Cut AI & Cloud Cost by 30–50%
I audit your AWS, GCP, and Azure spend, right-sizing GPUs, idle compute, and unoptimized inference provisioning. Enterprise cloud waste is a $44.5B/year problem, with roughly 1 in 4 AI dollars wasted on over-allocation.
SOC 2 & Audit-Ready Foundation
I implement centralized logging, least-privilege access control, automated backups, and drift detection so you pass compliance audits without hiring a dedicated full-time engineer.
99.9% Uptime with Zero Babysitting
Self-healing Kubernetes clusters, full Prometheus/Grafana observability, automated blue-green rollouts, and verified SLI/SLO tracking to ensure your product stays up under peak load.
Who This Is For
Funded B2B, SaaS, and AI startups (post-PMF) where full-time US cloud engineers require $130K–$160K+ salaries plus equity. You hire a battle-tested senior offshore engineer for 40% to 70% less, with dedicated daily timezone overlap and async updates.
How I Work (No Ghosting, Full Accountability)
One Senior Engineer with Full Accountability
Direct hands-on engineering, asynchronous standup updates in Slack/Loom, and dedicated overlap with US Pacific (PST) and Eastern (EST) business hours.
Documented SLAs & Proactive Issue Detection
I identify and surface architecture bottlenecks, cold-start delays, and latency risks before they reach your customers.
Complete Ownership of Your Code & Infrastructure
All infrastructure is codified in Terraform and Kubernetes manifests. You own 100% of the repository, runbooks, and IP.
Frequently Asked Questions · United States
How do you handle security and compliance for US companies (SOC 2 / HIPAA)?
I enforce least-privilege IAM policies, short-lived AWS STS credentials, HashiCorp Vault secrets injection, and strict audit logging so your infrastructure is turnkey compliant for SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA audits.
What is the working hours overlap for US West (PST) and East (EST)?
I provide dedicated daily live overlap with US Pacific (8:00 AM – 1:00 PM PST) and US Eastern (9:00 AM – 3:00 PM EST) business hours for pairing, Slack messaging, and architecture reviews.
How do you compare to hiring a full-time US DevOps engineer?
US senior DevOps engineers typically command $150K–$180K+ in base salary plus benefits and equity. My productized retainers provide equivalent senior expertise at a 40% to 70% cost reduction with no long-term employment lock-in.
