I automate reliable cloud-native platforms across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I'm currently improving enterprise Azure operations at Microsoft, where I automate secure multi-environment infrastructure and manage AKS clusters hosting 100+ microservices at 99.95% uptime.
I've built GitOps deployment workflows with ArgoCD, Helm, Azure DevOps, and Jenkins that support 100+ monthly deployments, reduce deployment failures by 40%, and cut release cycle time by 50%. I also use Python automation, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, and centralized logging to reduce operational effort, MTTR, and incident-triage time.
Previously at Accenture, I managed multi-account AWS infrastructure and production EKS environments processing millions of monthly transactions. At Cognizant, I provisioned GCP infrastructure, deployed Kubernetes workloads on GKE, and built automated remediation workflows that reduced production incidents by 30%.
I focus on Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD, GitOps, observability, and practical SRE practices including SLOs, SLIs, error budgets, and incident optimization.
