I am a DevOps Engineer with 3.5+ years of experience in managing Kubernetes environments and cloud infrastructure across Azure and AWS. I excel in container orchestration, Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, and automating CI/CD pipelines to deliver scalable and reliable systems. I work hands-on with Kubernetes (AKS, EKS), Docker, and cloud-native architectures, focusing on performance optimization, reliability, and security. I automate infrastructure provisioning, troubleshoot production issues, and boost observability using Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, and Azure Monitor. I thrive in Agile teams, collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders to design, deploy, and maintain secure cloud solutions, while driving operational efficiency and continuous improvement.
