Azizbek Shokosimov

Senior CS Major at DePaul University

About Me

I'm a senior CS student at DePaul University with 2.5 years of experience working as a DevOps/SRE engineer at a startup consulting firm. I've built CICD pipelines, deployed apps to Kubernetes, and wrote a multi-arch GitHub Actions pipeline that helped a client move to AWS Graviton and cut their costs while boosting performance.

I'm passionate about DevOps, Golang, cloud native applications, reliable systems, and cloud technologies in general. I picked up Go recently and instantly loved how simple and powerful it is. My goal is to become a strong backend/infrastructure engineer who knows how to build and support modern cloud-native systems.

Always happy to connect and talk about tech, Golang, or cloud-native ideas.
