DevOps and SRE focused on cloud platform engineering, IaC, and observability to improve reliability, speed, and cost control.
What I'm looking for
I’m a DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer with 4+ years of hands-on experience building, automating, and operating production infrastructure on AWS and GCP. I specialize in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform and Ansible, and I apply GitOps practices to keep environments consistent and reliable.
I improve reliability by designing observability dashboards and proactive alerting with Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, and CloudWatch—reducing Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) by 35%. When incidents happen, I lead Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and apply SRE on-call practices across Kubernetes deployments and application logs, cutting repeat incidents by 25%.
I strengthen CI/CD and release engineering with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and ArgoCD, including blue-green/rolling and zero-downtime approaches. I’ve automated operational workflows in Python, Bash, and Go, reducing manual operational effort by 40% and improving release success rates by 30%.
I also focus on cost governance and platform consistency, provisioning and standardizing infrastructure with Terraform, Kubernetes (Amazon EKS), and GitOps, then introducing usage quotas and cost-reporting dashboards on AWS—cutting resource waste by ~20% and increasing platform availability by 30%. I enjoy mentoring engineers through documentation, architecture reviews, and office hours, accelerating adoption of cloud-enabled workflows.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Built production observability dashboards and proactive alerts to reduce MTTD by 35%, and led RCA to cut repeat incidents by 25% across Kubernetes deployments and application logs. Improved release velocity by automating deployments with Python/Bash/Go and CI/CD using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and ArgoCD.
Engineered repeatable AWS environments using Terraform, CloudFormation, and Ansible to speed up provisioning and onboarding. Strengthened CI/CD with Jenkins/GitHub Actions and deployment validation, and improved production visibility and security using CloudWatch/Grafana/Prometheus plus IAM and secrets management.
OpsPilot AI Incident Triage
Developed an AI-powered incident response platform that correlates alerts, logs, deployment events, and runbooks to generate evidence-based root cause hypotheses using LLM-based analysis.
CodeSentinel AI Workbench
Built an AI-assisted DevOps workbench that scans repositories, assesses release risk, and performs security analysis to generate evidence-backed reports before production releases.
