What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that values innovation and collaboration, offering opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

As a DevOps/SRE Engineer with over 2.5 years of experience, I specialize in building resilient, cloud-native systems on AWS and Azure. My proficiency in Kubernetes automation, observability, and GitOps workflows has enabled me to lead significant infrastructure projects, including a successful AWS-to-Azure migration that resulted in a 35% cost reduction. I thrive in high-ownership startup environments, where I have demonstrated my ability to design and implement scalable solutions that enhance operational efficiency.

One of my proudest achievements was winning the CNCF Pune Hackathon in 2025, where my team developed a production-grade SRE platform featuring automated CI/CD and a comprehensive Kubernetes observability stack. I am passionate about fostering a culture of reliability and collaboration, having built SRE workflows that integrate monitoring tools and facilitate blameless postmortems. My technical skills span cloud platforms, infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tools, making me a versatile asset to any team.
