@basilsunny
DevOps Architect at Qburst who cut compute costs 30% by migrating workloads to Kubernetes on EKS.
What I'm looking for
At Qburst, I design AWS infrastructure with Terraform and CloudFormation, and build CI/CD pipelines for application delivery. I also create monitoring and centralized logging solutions for microservice applications.
On a monolithic-to-modular migration, I decomposed workloads into containerized microservices and moved them to Kubernetes on EKS with independent scaling policies. This cut compute costs by 30% while maintaining performance.
I’ve also modernized CI/CD pipelines, centralized Kubernetes logging, and delivered monitoring across clusters. I’m open to DevOps architecture, platform engineering, and consulting opportunities, helping teams build resilient, cost-efficient platforms on AWS and Kubernetes.
