What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Senior Linux SysOps/DevOps role in mission-critical environments where I can own CI/CD and reliable 24×7 operations, strengthen monitoring and automation, and keep improving performance and security while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

I’m a Senior SysOps & DevOps Engineer with 14+ years of hands-on experience supporting large-scale, mission-critical enterprise systems across diverse technology stacks. I focus on IT Service Operations—release management, incident and problem management, and change coordination—especially in 24×7 environments.

I’m also a proven Oracle E-Business Suite specialist, delivering 12 end-to-end Financials implementations and 5 SCM rollouts (R12.1.1-R12.2.5), including 2 major upgrade programs. I bring a strong techno-functional mindset, partnering with project managers, functional teams, and business stakeholders to drive on-time, low-risk delivery.

In my current role, I enhance CI/CD pipelines and deployments using tools like Jenkins, Git/Bitbucket, Octopus Deploy, Puppet/Foreman, and monitoring/optimization platforms such as Dynatrace and Fusion Reactor APM. I also mentor junior engineers, strengthen documentation and knowledge transfer, and continuously evaluate emerging technologies to maintain operational excellence.
