What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth in cloud technologies and DevOps practices.

I'm Vijay Saxena, a dedicated DevOps Engineer with over 4.5 years of experience in software engineering and DevOps practices. My journey has been marked by a commitment to optimizing deployment processes and enhancing system reliability. At SEC AND DEVOPS, I successfully deployed and managed EKS clusters, streamlined workflows with Argo CD, and executed disaster recovery strategies that ensured high availability for critical applications.

My expertise extends to cloud technologies, including AWS, Azure, and GCP, where I have implemented infrastructure as code using Terraform and Azure Bicep. I pride myself on my ability to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency, having achieved a 40% reduction in AWS expenses through resource optimization. My background in software engineering allows me to bridge the gap between development and operations, ensuring seamless collaboration and delivery.
