Site Reliability Engineer who builds resilient Kubernetes and DevOps systems.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Site Reliability Engineer with over 18 years of industry experience, including 8+ years in DevOps. I’ve led Kubernetes and DevOps efforts across Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) and OCI, focusing on uptime, automation, and security-aligned operations.
At Oracle India Pvt. Ltd., I supported OKE clusters and built pipelines using Jenkins, Terraform, Ansible, Python, and GitHub, integrating Prometheus, Istio, and HPA while maintaining security and access control per OCI policies. I also led Kubernetes cluster upgrades across 10+ environments with near-zero downtime (<1%), improving secure and resilient OKE operations by reducing vulnerabilities by ~25%. Earlier, as a DevOps Manager at Jio Platforms Limited, I led teams for continuous deployment (CD), provisioned AWS instances using Terraform, and used Kubernetes to orchestrate deployment, scaling, and container management. Beyond cloud, I’ve delivered long-running UNIX/Solaris infrastructure and clustering work (including VERITAS Cluster Server), and I’ve automated infrastructure to reduce manual effort by ~50% using DevOps tooling.
