Sri LankaWhat I'm looking for
I am a DevOps engineer experienced in automating CI/CD pipelines, managing cloud platforms (primarily Google Cloud Platform), and driving operational efficiency across telecommunications and service provider environments. I focus on reducing manual work, improving uptime, and cutting infrastructure costs.
In previous roles I created and maintained automated deployment pipelines, led improvements that delivered a 15% faster deployment turnaround, eliminated 75% of manual deployment work, and maintained 99% uptime across multiple deployments. I have a proven record of decommissioning redundant resources to save $1,500 monthly and performing customer upgrades with minimal downtime.
I also bring cross-functional experience from digital journalism, web development, and technical documentation, having driven website traffic growth and subscriber increases through content and UX improvements. I enjoy mentoring teams, running knowledge-sharing sessions, and building resilient, cost-effective cloud-native solutions.
