I'm a Senior DevOps Engineer with 4+ years of experience building and operating production cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and reliable distributed systems at scale. Currently at Pocket FM, I work on AWS cloud infrastructure and platform reliability supporting systems serving 130M+ users and 50+ microservices. What I care about: 🛡️ Reliability & SRE — building resilient systems, improving SLOs, observability, incident response, and Root Cause Analysis (RCA). ⚙️ Automation & Infrastructure as Code — reducing operational toil through Terraform, Python, Bash, CI/CD, and GitOps. 💰 FinOps & Cloud Cost Optimization — improving cloud efficiency and reducing infrastructure costs without compromising reliability or performance. 🚀 Platform Engineering & Developer Productivity — building self-service infrastructure, deployment workflows, and tooling that help engineering teams ship faster and safer. 🔍 Continuous Improvement — turning production incidents, RCA, and operational insights into long-term reliability improvements. Some of the impact I've driven includes ~90% reduction in infrastructure provisioning effort, ~90% reduction in monthly security infrastructure costs, reducing MTTD from 25 minutes to under 60 seconds, and ~65% reduction in infrastructure on-call toil. I was also recognized with the Founder’s Choice Award at Pocket FM for my contributions to FinOps and DevOps. I'm also interested in AI-assisted DevOps and AIOps, exploring how LLMs, automation, and intelligent tooling can improve incident response, troubleshooting, and infrastructure operations. Tech I work with: AWS (EKS, EC2, RDS, S3, IAM, VPC, CloudFront, ElastiCache), Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, Python, Bash, Linux, Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, CloudWatch, OpenSearch, Kafka, Redis, MySQL, AWS WAF, Wiz, Kyverno, and AWS Inspector.
