My Expertise

Building Bulletproof Infrastructure with DevOps & Cloud

Combining Linux mastery, container orchestration, and automation to create resilient systems that never sleep.

01

Cloud & Infrastructure

Provisioning and managing AWS (EC2, EKS, S3, VPC, IAM, RDS, Lambda) with Terraform for multi-environment IaC — cost-controlled, compliance-tagged, and audit-ready.

02

CI/CD & GitOps

Building immutable Docker pipelines across GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Bitbucket, and ArgoCD for 15+ microservices — zero rollback incidents over 12 months of Blue/Green and Canary deployments.

03

Kubernetes & Containers

Operating production Kubernetes clusters — on-prem air-gapped and EKS — with HPA, RBAC, PDB, Helm, and network policies. 99.9%+ SLA across 5+ enterprise deployments.

04

Observability & Security

Prometheus/Grafana SLI/SLO alerting, ELK + Graylog audit pipelines, VAPT remediation — zero critical findings across three banking audits with 12 CVEs resolved.
