I’m Dorrabb Khan — a Senior DevOps & Cloud Engineer in Munich, Germany. I currently lead product development, cloud infrastructure and DevOps at adnymics/ParcelDealz, where I’ve grown from working student to senior engineer over five years.
Alongside work I’m doing a part-time MSc in Artificial Intelligence at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg — cloud systems by day, neural networks by night. Off the clock it’s football, the gym, bouldering, and Ilm Abroad Pakistan.
Experience
Senior DevOps Engineer
- Designed and scaled the cloud-native AWS backend (ECS, RDS, S3, Lambda, Route53) behind a SaaS platform serving 60+ enterprise clients — 2.5M+ requests/month at 99.99% availability and sub-300ms latency.
- Cut core AWS spend ~73% via FinOps (EC2/RDS rightsizing, Savings Plans, automated environment teardowns) and observability costs ~90% by replacing DataDog with a self-hosted Loki/Grafana/Prometheus stack.
- Accelerated deployments ~85% with automated CI/CD pipelines and containerised dev environments; migrated 14 microservices off Python 2.7 and built a high-throughput Rust + SQS pipeline. Regularly present architecture decisions to the Board, CTO and 30+ colleagues in tech talks.
