About Me Section

I am a DevOps Engineer with 8+ years of overall experience, 5 years in cloud/DevOps experience and an additional 3 years in Linux and AIX systems administration, blending platform engineering, automation, and cloud-native transformation across AWS, Azure, and GCP. My work is centered on building secure, scalable, and observable systems — from designing fault-tolerant architectures and zero-downtime deployment pipelines, to implementing compliance-focused DevOps practices and real-time monitoring. I've led initiatives that accelerated deployments by over 70%, reduced MTTR via observability-first design, and championed GitOps adoption using tools like ArgoCD and Terraform. My CI/CD strategies leverage GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and JFrog, and I embed security through IAM, OS hardening, automated secret rotation, and backup compliance reporting. I thrive in high-impact roles where I can align system reliability with development velocity and security assurance.
