DevOps & Cloud Engineer | CI/CD • AWS Cloud ML • Secure Infrastructure & Wi-Fi Modernization | 19+ yrs Critical National Infrastructure
With over 19 years as Principal Manager in critical national infrastructure at the Transmission Company of Nigeria, I bring deep expertise in high-reliability systems, operational excellence, and secure network environments.
I am currently pursuing an MSc in DevOps & Cloud Computing at IU International University of Applied Sciences, where I have achieved strong results:
- DevOps – 96% (Distinction)
- Advanced Research Methods – 90% (Distinction)
- Cloud Computing Project – 84% (Good)
My GitHub showcases practical CI/CD mastery, cloud-native ML deployment, and evidence-based research on wireless security and infrastructure modernization.
MSc DevOps & Cloud Computing Coursework
I designed and developed a contract-first microservices-based Movies API to demonstrate end-to-end API engineering, automated testing, and reproducible performance evaluation.
Key Highlights:
- OpenAPI v3 contract-first design with full CRUD, RBAC, and error handling
- Comprehensive testing (unit, integration, contract) + k6 load testing
- GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline with reproducible artifacts
- Performance baselines (P50 < 100ms, P95 < 500ms)
Skills Demonstrated: Microservices architecture, OpenAPI, performance engineering, CI/CD, technical documentation.
MSc DevOps Module | Grade: 96% (Distinction)
I built a full-stack web application with a complete enterprise-grade CI/CD pipeline.
Key Highlights:
- Automated build, test, and deploy using Jenkins, Maven, Selenium, JUnit, and GitHub Actions
- Security scanning with Dependabot and structured logging
- Agile/Scrum methodology with Jira + GitHub Copilot
Skills Demonstrated: CI/CD orchestration, automated testing, security practices, DevOps tooling.
🔐 An Empirical Study of IEEE 802.11 & WPA3 Adoption Gaps and Feature Prioritization in Campus & Public Wi-Fi Hotspots
MSc Course | Grade: 90% (Distinction)
I designed an empirical research proposal to deliver evidence-based prioritization of IEEE 802.11 features and WPA3 capabilities for dense, multi-AP environments.
Research Scope:
- ⚡ Performance benchmarking in high-density scenarios
- 🚶 Roaming & handover resilience for latency-sensitive applications
- 🛡️ Security evaluation — WPA2-to-WPA3 migration and management frame protection
Key Deliverable: Prioritized deployment roadmap for secure cloud-edge networking and zero-trust access.

MSc Cloud Computing Project | Grade: 84% (Good / 2.0)
I designed and deployed a cloud-native ML recommender system for power grid operations. The prototype analyzes grid assets and generates prioritized risk-based maintenance recommendations to support predictive reliability management.
Built With:
- Python 3.11, scikit-learn, pandas, joblib
- FastAPI (REST API for real-time recommendations)
- Docker
- AWS (ECR, S3, Elastic Beanstalk, EC2, IAM, CloudWatch)
Key Highlights:
- Trained tabular ML model for outage risk ranking and maintenance prioritization
- Developed and exposed a
/recommendREST API endpoint - Containerized and deployed the service to AWS Elastic Beanstalk
- Comprehensive documentation and operational considerations
Why this project matters: It bridges my 19+ years of grid operations experience with modern cloud and machine learning technologies.
