Hi, I’m Madhuri Perala, a Cloud Engineer with 4+ years of experience designing and managing secure, scalable AWS cloud infrastructures for financial and healthcare domains. I specialize in building robust, cost-efficient cloud platforms using AWS services such as VPC, IAM, S3, ECS/EKS, Lambda, CloudWatch, and CloudTrail, along with Terraform and CloudFormation. I also work with Docker, Step Functions, EventBridge, and automated CI/CD pipelines to deliver reliable, secure solutions. I excel at auto-scaling, serverless workflows, monitoring, encryption with KMS, backup/DR, and RBAC to ensure high availability and compliance. My work has enabled real-time processing of 250,000+ daily financial transactions, reduced cloud costs by about $12K/month in healthcare projects, and cut lab result turnaround from 20 hours to under 5 hours in life sciences contexts. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive efficiency and security in complex environments.
