What I'm looking for

I’m looking for assignments in Cloud Computing and Migration, focused on infrastructure designing/implementation using IAAC (Terraform) and DevOps, with a high-repute IT organization and strong alignment to client business strategy.

I bring 9+ years of experience planning, designing, implementing, and maintaining systems in AWS cloud in a Linux environment. I migrate application and database servers from legacy environments to AWS public cloud, and I handle discovery/POC work for the initial migration phase using R6 migration technique.

I’ve led migration efforts for almost 15+ enterprise customers, setting up full AWS environments from scratch with customer-aligned HLD. My work spans VPC architecture (public/private subnets, SGs, route tables, ELB), landing zones, and infrastructure design for migration readiness and feasibility.

I operationalize infrastructure with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and AWS CloudFormation, and I automate deployments through CI/CD pipelines using AWS services plus third-party tools like Jenkins and Docker. I also focus on security and compliance—managing IAM access across EC2/RDS/S3/CloudWatch/EBS, monitoring security alerts, and optimizing cost and performance using tools like Cloud Checker.

Beyond cloud infrastructure, I support mission-critical databases: I’ve supported more than 45 Oracle database instances and managed DBA BAU tasks, Linux investigation/resolutions, and Oracle installation, upgrades, and patching (including 11.2.0.4 PSU and CPU patch). I’ve handled database migration via Data Pump, alert/tablespace monitoring, and backed-up/recovery practices while maintaining strong incident, change, and runbook discipline.
