Open to new opportunities

Dmitriy Kerget

Cloud Network Engineer & Infrastructure Specialist

I build Azure environments that are clean, resilient, and easy to understand. Secure cloud architecture that scales with you — whether you're adopting Copilot, Fabric, or the next wave of Microsoft technologies.

Now
Available — focused on AI-era cloud architecture, Zero Trust, and agentic AI patterns.

How I think about cloud

Strong infrastructure isn't about enabling every feature. It's about selecting what fits, building it correctly from day one, and making security, cost, automation, and M365 integration work seamlessly together.

Security first

Zero Trust isn't a product — it's a mindset. Every design starts with identity, least privilege, and the assumption that the perimeter doesn't exist.

Automate everything

If you do it twice, it should be code. Terraform, Bicep, PowerShell — repeatable infrastructure eliminates drift, reduces risk, and frees teams to focus on outcomes.

Cost is architecture

Cloud spend is a design decision, not an afterthought. Governance, reserved instances, autoscaling, and advisor recommendations are built in from the start.

AI-ready by default

The next wave is agentic AI and Copilot integration. Infrastructure built today needs clean identity, secure APIs, and governance policies that AI workloads can rely on.
