I’m a DevOps Engineer with 3+ years of experience designing and managing enterprise-scale GCP infrastructure. I focus on Kubernetes orchestration, infrastructure-as-code automation, and secure CI/CD pipelines that keep releases reliable and low-risk.

In my current role, I designed a PoC on GKE using Istio service mesh to enforce fine-grained access control for an ML model inference service. I implemented JWT-based auth across GCP service accounts and individual users, and I’ve helped standardize repeatable deployments using Helm charts across dev/staging/prod.

I also improve operational resilience through careful Kubernetes change management, including in-place GKE cluster version upgrades with zero workload disruption. When pipeline stability was impacted by GitHub API rate limits in Jenkins, I migrated to a GitHub App-based integration to replace per-user OAuth tokens with installation-scoped tokens, increasing quota limits and improving reliability.

Previously, I maintained multi-environment GCP deployments with Terraform, reducing manual intervention by 60% and increasing system efficiency by 40%. I built production-grade OpenShift Tekton CI/CD pipelines for NodeJS microservices, including blue-green deployments to Compute Engine VMs and NGINX load balancer configuration for zero-downtime releases, and I implemented security controls aligned with OWASP Top 10 using Google Cloud Armor, custom WAF rules, and DDoS protection—resulting in zero critical vulnerabilities in production.
