What I'm looking for
I am a senior infrastructure engineer with 14 years of mission-critical IT infrastructure experience, focused on servers, storage, virtualization, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms. I lead technical engagements for enterprise clients and translate business requirements into resilient, scalable infrastructure designs.
I have architected and migrated 200+ workloads to Azure and GCP, managed 150+ ESXi hosts and 3,500+ VMs, and implemented IaC using Terraform, Ansible, and PowerShell to reduce deployment time by 70%. I design HCI solutions (Cisco HyperFlex, VMware vSAN, Nutanix) and DR/Active-Active architectures that achieved 99.9% uptime for critical environments.
I collaborate with presales, OEMs, and cross-functional teams to produce HLDs/LLDs, RFI/RFP responses, and technical proposals, while running knowledge-transfer and modernization initiatives. I prioritize business alignment, automation, and operational governance to deliver measurable efficiency and cost improvements.
