I build reliable bare-metal Kubernetes, storage, and Linux infrastructure through automation and deep systems engineering.

At Flipkart, I scaled and maintained a highly available 58 PB bare-metal storage fleet across thousands of distributed compute nodes. I built Go-based Kubernetes controllers, a custom Terraform provider, and Prometheus telemetry for SPDK storage errors.

Previously at Infineon, I delivered Python manufacturing frameworks for 10,000+ production units, embedded C/RTOS validation suites, Linux device drivers, and custom BSPs for Wi-Fi 6 platforms. I also led a four-member cross-functional team integrating Linux kernel drivers, device trees, bootloaders, PCIe, and SDIO interfaces across Nvidia Jetson, NXP i.MX8, and Raspberry Pi hosts.

I've built CI/CD release automation with Django, Git webhooks, distributed hardware test beds, and automated reporting, while using perf, ftrace, Wireshark, and root-cause analysis to resolve difficult hardware and infrastructure failures.
