About
Hi, I’m AJMAL KHAN. I am a Senior Software Developer and Cloud Architect with over five years of experience delivering end-to-end software engineering, from development to deployment, through DevSecOps practices on cloud platforms (AWS EKS, Azure AKS) and on-premises OpenShift. I help teams build, deploy, and scale applications across Kubernetes clusters with secure, automated pipelines and a focus on reliability and compliance.
I specialize in backend Python and Django, REST APIs, and database design, complemented by frontend skills and strong emphasis on security, monitoring, and cost optimization. I enjoy collaborating across teams, documenting architectures, and delivering robust solutions in multi-tenant environments.
