Paulo Correa is a Senior DevOps AWS Engineer with a rare combination of 23+ years designing secure, high-availability infrastructure and eight years focused on cloud-native DevOps delivery. He specializes in modernizing legacy systems into automated, compliant multi-cloud environments using Terraform/Terragrunt, Kubernetes (EKS), and robust CI/CD (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD) while embedding shift-left security practices. Paulo has driven measurable impact—securing 60+ AWS accounts with zero-trust IAM, halving deployment cycles, eradicating most critical vulnerabilities, and engineering 99.99% uptime for high-traffic e-commerce events. He pairs technical depth in observability and FinOps with practical cost-saving tactics (Docker image and CI minute reductions) that produced six-figure cloud savings. An experienced mentor and international collaborator, he has accelerated global teams’ release velocity while maintaining PCI/HIPAA/GDPR compliance. Based in Maranhão, Brazil, Paulo blends academic teaching experience and hands-on systems administration background, which gives him an uncommon operational rigor in infrastructure design and disaster recovery planning.
