## About

```text
At IBM, I administer OpenShift (ROKS) clusters and operate IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation, troubleshooting cluster operations and debugging operator reconciliation.

I lead IBM Cloud IAM governance and audit initiatives, automating service ID policy mapping and access group reviews with Python, Bash, and Node.js.

At Xebia IT Architects India Pvt. Ltd., I architected and managed EKS clusters with 99.9%+ availability, and provisioned AWS and GCP infrastructure using Terraform.

I’ve also automated CI/CD pipelines, supported Kubernetes platforms across cloud environments, and worked on cloud migrations that reduced infrastructure costs by ~20%. I hold certifications in AWS, Google Cloud, Terraform, Kubernetes, Azure, and Oracle.
