Mehdi Salhi | Cloud & DevOps Engineer

About

Cloud & DevOps engineer on AWS. B.S. Computer Science (SNHU, Aug 2026). AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate & Cloud Practitioner.

I build and deploy cloud infrastructure on AWS and automate it end to end with infrastructure as code and CI/CD. Comfortable across compute, networking, containers, and security, and I build the applications that run on top.
