Cloud infrastructure that deploys itself, scans itself, and rolls back when it needs to.

I'm Godspower Rex — a Cloud & DevOps Engineer building health-gated CI/CD pipelines, hardened Terraform, and Kubernetes systems that hold up under real traffic.

Background

I started in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka — then moved into cloud infrastructure, drawn to systems that either work reliably under load or fail loudly enough to fix fast.

Today I design and ship infrastructure-as-code, Kubernetes platforms, and CI/CD pipelines for startups and SaaS teams — with a habit of treating security scanning and encryption as defaults, not afterthoughts.

Based in Lagos, Nigeria. Working with teams across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

What I do

Cloud Infrastructure

Secure, scalable environments on AWS, Azure, and GCP — sized to the business, not over-engineered.

CI/CD Automation

Pipelines that test, scan, build, and deploy automatically — with health checks that gate every release.

Docker & Kubernetes

Containerized apps and orchestration set up for resilience, not just to check the box.

Infrastructure as Code

Terraform-managed environments — repeatable, reviewable, and version-controlled from day one.

Load Balancing & Scaling

Systems that stay responsive under traffic spikes instead of falling over quietly.

Security & Cost Audits

Finding what's overspending or under-secured, then fixing it — with the reasoning documented, not just patched.

Featured work

● LIVE ON AWS

Zero-Downtime Multi-Cloud CI/CD Pipeline

A Node.js API deployed through a fully automated, health-gated pipeline — Terraform-provisioned AWS infrastructure (VPC, ECS Fargate, ALB), Trivy + tfsec security scanning on every push, and KMS-encrypted logs end to end. If a deploy fails its health check, it rolls back automatically — no manual intervention.

Serverless Data Pipeline

A public, safely-bounded demo of an event-driven pipeline. Upload an image and watch it flow through the system in real time: a Lambda signs a short-lived presigned S3 URL (never exposing real credentials to the browser), an S3 event triggers a second Lambda that extracts real metadata, and the result lands in DynamoDB — all visible on the page as it happens. No servers, nothing that accumulates.

Static Site Hosting — S3 + CloudFront

The AWS-recommended pattern for serving static content — no EC2, no server to patch, no idle compute cost. A private S3 bucket (fully blocked from public access) is read only by CloudFront through Origin Access Control, the current secure standard — not the older public-bucket-policy approach still common in outdated tutorials. Every push runs Terraform, syncs the changed files, and invalidates the CDN cache automatically.

Additional builds

AWS EKS E-commerce Platform

Problem: retail workloads need to stay available through traffic spikes without manual scaling intervention. Approach: a highly-available EKS cluster on Terraform, with ArgoCD handling GitOps delivery and Horizontal Pod Autoscaling reacting to real load metrics — no manual scale-up during peak traffic.

K8s Monitoring Stack

Problem: microservice failures are invisible until they cascade, and root-causing them after the fact is slow. Approach: Prometheus + Grafana dashboards paired with an ELK logging pipeline, built so an on-call engineer can trace a failing request to its root cause in minutes, not hours.

Azure DevOps CI Pipeline

Problem: new Azure DevOps organizations don't get free Microsoft-hosted build agents by default, which blocks CI before it starts. Approach: registered and ran a self-hosted build agent to execute a YAML-defined pipeline against a GitHub-connected repo — the same pattern companies use when they self-host agents for security or compliance reasons.
