Cloud Engineer
About Me
I'm Jermaine Brewer, a Cloud Engineer and Salesforce Consultant with a strong foundation in IT support, cloud infrastructure, and marketing automation. After serving in the U.S. Air Force and transitioning into the tech industry, I've built a career around helping businesses implement scalable, cloud-based solutions. I have hands-on experience with services like EC2, S3, Lambda, and CloudFormation. I also consult on Salesforce and Pardot cloud platforms, offering clients strategic guidance on setup, automation, and user training. I'm currently focused on growing as a cloud engineer while continuing to take on projects that challenge me to solve real-world problems in the cloud.
