What I'm looking for

I seek a cloud/VMware role focused on large-scale migrations, private cloud engineering, automation, and cross-team collaboration in a growth-oriented environment.

I am a VMware administrator and private cloud engineer with over 12 years of IT experience focused on VMware administration, large-scale cloud migrations, and private cloud engineering. I have led migrations of thousands of VMs to VMware Cloud on AWS and private cloud environments while optimizing infrastructure performance and automation.

At Mphasis I managed end-to-end migration projects using HCX and VMware Cloud technologies, executed VCF and VxRail upgrades, handled UCS firmware updates for hundreds of ESXi hosts, and performed disaster recovery using SRM. I also support AWS cloud services (EC2, S3, VPC, IAM) and multi-cloud integrations including AVS and GCVE.

I hold certifications including AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate, Azure AZ-900, Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104), MCSE, MCSA and ITIL Foundation. I prioritize operational reliability, automation to reduce manual effort, and collaborative vendor engagement to deliver projects on time and under budget.
