DevOps & Platform Engineer building cloud platforms and AI operations tools across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Confidential (under NDA), I provision and maintain cloud infrastructure with Terraform and manage Azure Kubernetes Service deployments and upgrades.
I set up ArgoCD GitOps delivery and Jenkins pipelines, then build Grafana and Grafana Alloy observability with dashboards, alerts, and SLOs. I also integrate PagerDuty and handle on-call response and root-cause analysis.
At AgreeYa Solutions, I built delivery pipelines for AWS EKS microservices and provisioned infrastructure with reusable Terraform modules. I introduced auto-scaling policies that reduced cloud cost by 20% and pipeline automation that cut deployment time by 50%.
In independent projects, I’ve built an MCP server that lets AI agents run Kubernetes and monitoring operations with audit logging, alongside local-LLM tools for trading audits and knowledge search. I’m open to remote contract and part-time engagements.
