About Me

Infrastructure by design,
automation by default

I'm Houssem Karroubi, a final-year engineering student at ESPRIT Tunis, specializing in DevOps and Cloud Computing. Based in Monastir, Tunisia — actively seeking full-time Cloud/DevOps roles or an end-of-studies internship.

My stack covers cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, OpenStack), container orchestration with Docker & Kubernetes, configuration management with Ansible & Vagrant, and CI/CD pipelines through Jenkins & GitHub Actions.

I've shipped real production systems — an AI-powered analytics platform for banks deployed on Kubernetes/DigitalOcean, a full private IaaS cloud with OpenStack integrated with Azure AKS, and a BaaS platform deployed on Azure. Three internships, real deliverables.
