👋 Hi, I'm Jason Bland

Cloud / Platform Engineer · AWS · Terraform · CI/CD · MLOps · ex-Intuit Senior SWE

🚀 About Me

I build and automate cloud infrastructure — Terraform, AWS, and CI/CD pipelines that ship securely with no stored credentials. I come from 8+ years of production software engineering (5 at Intuit building authentication systems that served millions), so I bring the parts many cloud engineers lack: real production experience — deploys, on-call, observability — and deep security & identity depth.

  • ☁️ Building Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) on AWS — containerized (ECS/Fargate) and serverless (Lambda)
  • 🔐 Keyless CI/CD (GitHub Actions + OIDC), least-privilege IAM, zero-trust thinking
  • 🤖 Exploring AI/MLOps infrastructure with FinOps cost discipline
  • 🎓 Completing an M.S. in IT (Dec 2026) · earning AWS Solutions Architect + Terraform certifications
  • 📍 San Diego — open to Cloud Engineer / Architect / Platform Engineer roles (onsite or remote)

🛠️ Tech Stack

Cloud & Infrastructure

AWS Terraform Docker Kubernetes GitHub Actions Terraform

Languages

Python TypeScript JavaScript Java Node.js

Data & Observability

DynamoDB PostgreSQL Redis CloudWatch

Also experienced with React, Next.js & modern frontend — full-stack range from years of product engineering.
