DevOps-focused engineer building CI/CD, cloud infrastructure, and resilient Kubernetes systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a DevOps intern who set up and maintained CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to speed up build, test, and deployment. At Verisk, I deployed applications on AWS EC2 behind a load balancer for health checks and traffic handling, containerized services with Docker, and used Terraform to provision compute, IAM, networking, and security groups. I also helped implement zero-downtime blue green deployments with rollbacks and an Nginx reverse proxy.
I thrive on turning operational signals into automated recovery. In my Kubernetes project, I built a rule-based failure detection and remediation system using Prometheus, Grafana, and a Python remediation service that interacts with the Kubernetes API. I’ve also delivered cloud-native and backend solutions—event-driven components with Amazon SQS, scalable FastAPI data APIs, and Django systems with role-based access—while continuously optimizing performance and reliability.
