Summary

Senior DevOps & Platform Engineer with nearly 7 years of experience architecting and scaling cloud-native platforms across GCP, AWS, and Azure. Proven track record in Platform Engineering, Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, and DevSecOps — delivering self-service cloud platforms, standardized landing zones, and automated deployment frameworks that accelerate developer productivity and operational efficiency.

Skilled in driving cloud transformation using Terraform, GitOps, CI/CD, and cloud governance frameworks to improve deployment velocity, strengthen security posture, and increase infrastructure reliability. Builds observability-driven platforms with advanced monitoring, logging, and incident management to ensure high availability for mission-critical workloads. Also brings hands-on MLOps and AI Infrastructure experience — model serving, model lifecycle management, and Kubernetes-based ML platforms — as a secondary, supporting skill set.
