I build secure multi-cloud infrastructure and CI/CD automation that reduces cost and deployment time.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At DataOrb, I design Jenkins CI/CD pipelines, automate multi-region and multi-cloud provisioning with Terraform, and optimize Docker-based deployments. My work reduced infrastructure costs by 15%, build and deployment times by 20%, and system downtime by 15%.
Across Thomson Reuters and X-Axis Solutions, I've built reusable Terraform modules, governed Azure and AWS environments, and brought legacy resources under Infrastructure as Code. I accelerated provisioning cycles by 40%, enabled 3x faster provisioning during peak events, and maintained 99.95% Terraform-driven deployment success.
I manage Kubernetes workloads across Amazon EKS and AKS, using rolling updates, auto-scaling, Prometheus, and Grafana to keep services available and observable. I also integrate JFrog Artifactory, SonarQube, GitHub, GitLab, AWS CodeCommit, and AWS SSO into secure delivery workflows.
My cloud and DevOps journey began building smart-home automation systems at Edomotics, where I worked with AWS IoT Core, Lambda, RDS, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, and Linux. I'm focused on automated solutions that improve productivity, reliability, security, and operational efficiency.
