@vijayesaxena
DevOps engineer specializing in AWS/GCP/Azure Kubernetes, Terraform, and cost-optimized GitOps.
What I'm looking for
I’m an AWS & Azure certified DevOps Engineer with 5+ years of IT experience, including 3.5+ years building and managing cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, and Azure. I specialize in Kubernetes (EKS/GKE), Terraform IaC, and GitOps-based CI/CD pipelines, with a proven focus on cost optimization and delivery speed.
In my recent work, I rebuilt GitOps deployments on GKE using GitHub Actions and Argo CD across 12 microservices, cutting release cycle time by 60%. I also led AWS-to-GCP migration with zero data loss, designed live-streaming infrastructure on AWS (MediaLive/MediaConnect) maintaining 99.9% uptime, and implemented SOC2-aligned logging and security controls.
I bring an end-to-end mindset—from infrastructure and automation to observability and reliability—building monitoring stacks with Prometheus/Grafana/Loki and proactive FinOps alerting using Python. I thrive in environments where strong compliance, operational excellence, and multi-cloud scale are non-negotiable.
