Message

At Optum, I provision multi-region AWS and Azure infrastructure with Terraform, Azure Bicep, and AWS CloudFormation, reducing environment setup from 3 days to under 4 hours.

I standardized Kubernetes deployments across Amazon EKS and Azure AKS using Docker, Helm, and Argo CD. Deployment failures fell from 12 to fewer than 3 per month.

At LTIMindtree, I engineered containerization and Kubernetes orchestration for clinical data services on Azure, supporting 100K+ daily interactions and improving uptime to 99.9%. I also configured Prometheus monitoring and Grafana dashboards that cut mean time-to-detect from 45 minutes to under 8 minutes.

At NeonIT Systems, I developed Python and FastAPI services for a digital media streaming platform and optimized PostgreSQL queries, reducing average latency from 850 ms to 180 ms. I hold the HashiCorp Certified: Terraform Associate credential and Azure Administrator Associate certification.
