I am a Senior DevOps Engineer with nearly 20 years of experience spanning backend engineering, infrastructure operations, and platform engineering. Over the years, I have evolved from a backend-focused engineer into a DevOps-driven platform specialist, with strong expertise in cloud-native infrastructure, automation, and CI/CD systems. I played a key role in transitioning enterprise environments from traditional VM-based infrastructure to Kubernetes and OpenShift-based platforms. I specialize in Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, Ansible, Helm, and Chef, and I focus on building scalable, reproducible, and reliable systems that empower development teams to deliver faster and safer. I believe in automation-first thinking, operational excellence, and continuous improvement.

In this role, I focus on modernizing and operating complex enterprise build and infrastructure systems. I played a key role in transitioning from legacy VM-based infrastructure to Kubernetes / OpenShift environments. I helped containerize a complex build architecture, improving scalability, reliability, and operational flexibility. I took a key role in design and maintain Infrastructure as Code using Helm, ArgoCD and GitOps methodology ensuring reproducible and version-controlled environments. I automate provisioning and configuration processes to eliminate configuration drift and reduce operational overhead. I collaborate closely with development teams to align platform capabilities with product lifecycle requirements. I continuously improve reliability and system stability through monitoring, automation, and proactive problem-solving.
