Platform engineer at UKG building Kubernetes platforms and reusable Terraform modules for AWS environments.
What I'm looking for
At UKG, I design and support AWS cloud infrastructure and platform automation, including Kubernetes platforms and deployment workflows for application teams.
I build reusable Terraform modules and Infrastructure as Code patterns, and improve CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions. My work also covers reliability, observability, networking, IAM, and production support.
Earlier, at HCL Technologies, I managed Microsoft Azure infrastructure, supported Kubernetes deployments, and built CI/CD pipelines with CircleCI and Jenkins.
More recently, I’ve built practical projects around AI infrastructure on AWS, Kubernetes-based AI platforms on EKS, and RAG pipelines using embeddings, Qdrant, FastAPI, and Ollama. I’m particularly interested in Senior, Lead, or Staff Platform Engineering roles that combine cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, automation, and AI-ready platform design.
