Senior Cloud Engineer at KPMG who cut infrastructure deployment time by 50% with reusable Terraform and Azure Bicep modules.

United States

Message

At KPMG, I engineered reusable Terraform and Azure Bicep modules for AKS and shared Azure platform services, reducing infrastructure deployment time by 50%. I also built Azure DevOps pipelines that accelerated release delivery by 40%.

I support and operate AKS clusters across client environments, helping maintain 99.99% service availability through autoscaling, monitoring, and cluster upgrade planning. I deployed Prometheus and Grafana observability and automated incident escalation with PagerDuty.

At Bright Health, I automated AWS and Azure provisioning and operated Kubernetes clusters for HIPAA-regulated healthcare platforms. I helped reduce production vulnerabilities by 60% through scanning, remediation support, and policy-as-code checks.

Earlier, at Kno2, I supported the migration of legacy workloads to Azure and worked on high-availability and disaster recovery strategies. At Infosys, I administered AWS and Azure environments and developed CI/CD pipelines.
