DevOps / Platform / OCI
Abderrahmane Ouroui
OCI Platform Engineer | DevOps Engineer
Casablanca, Morocco
Professional Summary
OCI-focused Platform / DevOps Engineer building secure, observable production runways with Terraform, OKE/Kubernetes, IAM, networking, CI/CD, and MLOps/data foundations. OCI is my deepest production environment; the standards I apply are cloud-portable: Infrastructure as Code, least-privilege access, release promotion, observability, cost-aware governance, and Kubernetes operating patterns adaptable across AWS, GCP, Azure, or other cloud primitives.
Experience
DevOps Engineer II / Platform Engineer, Oracle
2023–Present
- Refactored and migrated Terraform-managed OCI infrastructure while protecting 500+ resources per environment from unnecessary recreation.
- Designed controlled OCI network and identity paths across load balancers, API gateways, Traefik, Kubernetes services, and third-party authN/authZ flows.
- Operated OKE/Kubernetes workloads with release validation, rollback planning, post-release monitoring, and production troubleshooting.
- Started a Platform-as-a-Service project from scratch, shaping the initial architecture, Kubernetes packaging, delivery path, and operating guardrails.
- Built observability patterns using OCI Logging, OCI Monitoring, Grafana dashboards, alarms, and runbooks to improve incident detection and triage.
- Enabled AI/MLOps-ready foundations with OCI Data Science, MLflow, Object Storage, Data Flow, Spark, and model artifact workflows.
- Supported beta programs, workshops, POCs, and GA readiness while mentoring teammates and improving platform adoption.
