Charan Kumar

I am a dedicated and results-driven DevOps Engineer with 7 years of experience optimizing and streamlining IT operations across AWS and Azure environments. My expertise lies in implementing CI/CD pipelines, automating infrastructure with Terraform, and managing containerized applications with Kubernetes. I have a proven track record of cost optimization, high availability, and scalability, and I am eager to contribute to a dynamic team in a challenging DevOps or Cloud Engineering role.

At N-Able in Ottawa, I architected secure VPCs and implemented IAM policies that enhanced compliance and reduced unauthorized access incidents. I successfully optimized AWS costs by 25% and improved CI/CD processes, leading to a 20% reduction in build times. My experience with Kubernetes and EKS has allowed me to increase scalability and performance while reducing operational overhead. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in cloud technologies to drive efficiency and innovation.

Previously, at Metrolinx-Presto in Toronto, I implemented GitOps practices and designed Infrastructure as Code with Terraform for Azure resources. My efforts in automating deployments and optimizing release processes significantly improved deployment speed and reduced costs. I am committed to continuous improvement and fostering collaboration in Agile environments, ensuring smooth project delivery and operational excellence.
