Manas Jain
@manasjain
Senior DevOps Engineer focused on AWS/Kubernetes reliability, cost optimization, and secure platform delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior DevOps / Platform Engineer with 5+ years of experience designing, scaling, and securing cloud-native infrastructure on AWS and Kubernetes. I’m CKA certified and have owned org-wide platform initiatives across multiple AWS accounts and EKS clusters in observability, cost optimization, reliability, and security.
At India’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, I led a Datadog-to-VictoriaMetrics migration handling 300M+ logs/day and a Beanstalk-to-EKS migration that cut deployment time by 80%. I also built self-serve cost visibility with AWS Athena, standardized secret scanning with Gitleaks, and improved reliability with Grafana/PagerDuty alerting, HPA using Prometheus custom metrics, and Istio-based mTLS—translating reliability and cost outcomes into business impact.
