What I'm looking for

I seek a cloud-focused role building scalable, secure AWS solutions with IaC, observability, and automation in a collaborative, growth-oriented team.

I am a Cloud Developer focused on designing and optimising AWS architectures, infrastructure-as-code deployments, and event-driven automation. I bring strong programming skills in Python and C++ and hands-on experience with container orchestration and observability tooling.

At Tally Solutions I advanced from intern to Cloud Solutions Engineer, delivering production-scale observability (Loki-Grafana-Mimir) supporting 10K+ VMs and processing 45,000+ daily logs, and implementing GitOps deployments with ArgoCD.

I built region-aware IaC using AWS CDK to enable operations in new geographies, developed queue-based event-driven VM provisioning with reliable rollback, and automated backup deletion flows to optimise S3 storage usage and compliance.

I also implemented secure API management with Envoy Gateway and automated TLS via cert-manager, created a secure log-collection pipeline reducing retrieval time by 90%, and deployed temporary privileged access controls to eliminate standing admin access for engineers.
