About Me
I'm Gerard Eklu, a Full-Stack & Cloud Platform Engineer with 5+ years of software engineering experience. At The Home Depot, I worked on enterprise-scale applications, modernized CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, TeamCity, and Spinnaker, and supported cloud deployments across GCP and Kubernetes environments with secure secrets management.
I specialize in product-minded engineering backed by infrastructure automation with Terraform, containerization with Docker, CI/CD pipeline design, and cloud-native architectures on AWS and GCP.
With experience building production software using React, Node.js, and TypeScript, I design infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines with real developer workflows in mind, focusing on reliable, low-friction delivery and operational clarity.
