“Great platforms are felt in speed, trusted in failure, and remembered for how quietly they scale.” My journey began deep in Linux systems and production operations, where I learned how reliability is earned, not assumed. Over time, that foundation evolved into DevOps and Cloud Platform Engineering, moving from maintaining infrastructure to designing secure, automated, and scalable platforms that engineering teams depend on. Today, I work as a Senior Cloud Platform Engineer and Lead Software Engineer (Individual Contributor) with 8+ years of experience, building multi-cloud platforms across AWS, Azure, and GCP. My work centers on Kubernetes platform engineering, GitOps, cloud cost optimisation, and AIOps-driven observability, ensuring platforms remain resilient, secure, and efficient while accelerating delivery. Impact That Moved the Needle ✔️ Delivered ~20% annual cloud cost savings (≈₹3.2 Crore/year) and ₹70 lakh savings in 12 months ✔️ Reduced alert fatigue by 55% and improved MTTR by 28% using AIOps and observability ✔️ Increased deployment frequency by 3× with lead time reduced to 4–6 hours ✔️ Reduced critical vulnerabilities by ~45% through automated DevSecOps pipelines ✔️ Improved platform availability to 99.5% and reduced deployment failures by 35% How I Build Reliable Platforms 🔹 Kubernetes-first, multi-cloud platforms (EKS, AKS, GKE) with service mesh 🔹 IaC & GitOps-driven delivery using Terraform, ArgoCD, and Helm 🔹 Security and policy-as-code embedded across CI/CD 🔹 Automation-first mindset (Python, Go, Ruby) delivering measurable productivity gains 🔹 Certified: Google Cloud | AWS | Azure DevOps | Red Hat (OpenShift & MERN in progress) Platforms I Have Engineered ◼️ AIOps-Driven Kubernetes Governance: Automated labeling and policy enforcement, raising compliance from 62% to 95%, cutting manual effort by 80–90%, and improving cost attribution by ~25% ◼️ Paymesh – Cloud-Native Microservices Platform: Production-grade AKS platform with Terraform, GitOps, secure CI, service mesh, and full-stack observability ◼️ Enterprise GitOps adoption enabling safer releases and rapid rollbacks ◼️ Multi-cloud security automation aligned with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 I build platforms with a long-term mindset, balancing speed, security, cost, and reliability to help organisations scale with confidence while keeping systems simple and teams productive.
