IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Cloud & DevOps Engineer with 4.3+ years of experience delivering scalable, high-availability infrastructure on Azure, Kubernetes (AKS), and VMware vCenter. I bring proven expertise in CI/CD automation, Docker containerization, Azure networking, and Linux/Windows server administration.
In my recent role, I managed 5+ Kubernetes (AKS) clusters, supporting 99.9%+ availability through monitoring, deployments, autoscaling, and incident troubleshooting. I’ve driven CI/CD-driven releases across DEV, QA, and PROD, reducing release cycle time by standardizing pipeline configurations, and automated routine operations saving ~40% manual effort.
I also enable secure hybrid connectivity by configuring Azure Virtual Network Gateway and implementing site-to-site VPN for 3+ branch locations. I enjoy building reliable, scalable infrastructure with cross-functional teams, and I’m seeking remote/WFH opportunities to contribute my cloud engineering expertise to globally distributed teams.
