⦿ Designed and implemented AWS cloud architectures using Terraform and CloudFormation, resulting in scalable, secure, and cost-optimized infrastructure.⦿ Improved scalability, security, and cost-efficiency of infrastructure provisioning, leading to smoother operations and resource utilization.⦿ Set up a robust monitoring stack with Prometheus and Grafana, creating custom dashboards and alerts to monitor key performance metrics and system health.⦿ Enhanced visibility into system performance and health, enabling proactive issue detection and resolution, resulting in improved uptime and user experience.⦿ Implemented code quality checks and security scans using SonarQube, integrated with CI/CD pipeline to enforce code quality standards and identify vulnerabilities early in the development cycle.⦿ Managed NoSQL database solutions with DynamoDB, optimizing data modeling, querying, and performance to support high-volume and low-latency applications.⦿ Experienced in Red Hat OpenShift for container orchestration, deployment, and management of Kubernetes-based applications, ensuring high availability and scalability.⦿ Strong proficiency in GitLab for version control, CI/CD pipelines, and collaboration, facilitating automated testing, continuous integration, and deployment of applications.⦿ Knowledgeable in Datadog for monitoring, troubleshooting, and optimizing performance of cloud-based applications and infrastructure, adept at identifying and resolving issues to ensure optimal performance.⦿ Proficient in project management tools like Jira and Confluence for agile project tracking, task management, and collaboration.⦿ Knowledgeable in container security with StackRox scan, ensuring container images and deployments are compliant with security policies and best practices.

⦿ Automating AWS cloud deployments using Shell script, Jenkins, and Ansible.⦿ Coordinate/assist developers with establishing and applying appropriate branching, labeling/naming conventions using GIT source control.⦿ Writing inventory and manifest files, Ansible playbooks, Terraform manifest files, and Kubernetes (k8s) manifest files.⦿ Setup for Apache and Nginx web servers coupled with AWS ELB SSL for all HTTP to HTTPS, thereby maximizing security.⦿ Software Configuration Management (Automate CI & CD pipeline using Ansible, Nexus, SonarQube, Maven, Jenkins, Terraform, and GIT).⦿ Resolved merging issues during rebasing and re-integrating branches by conducting meetings with Development Team Leads.⦿ Worked very closely with Developers and Build & Release team; set up Jenkins server & slave nodes as per request.⦿ Recently started deploying applications into an EKS cluster rather than self-managed Kubernetes clusters using kubeadm or KOPS.⦿ Supported and developed tools for integration, automated testing, and release management.⦿ Experience with container-based deployments using Docker, including working with Docker images, Docker Hub, Docker registries, and configuring EKS clusters using Terraform.⦿ Used Helm to simplify code writing for handling complex application deployments, integrated with Jenkins.⦿ Performed package management, upgrades/patches, troubleshooting, maintenance, and monitoring of applications using Prometheus and Grafana.⦿ Created, managed, and administered user accounts, security, and SSH password-less login.⦿ Network configuration and troubleshooting issues with respect to network and configuration files.⦿ Set up maintenance scripts using metadata for graceful startup and shutdown of servers.⦿ Used Jira to track vulnerabilities, requests, and incidents, and Confluence for documentation.

⦿ Collaborate across multiple functional and technical teams to deliver an Agile-based project.⦿ Work with clients to meet business needs and solve problems using the cloud.⦿ Work with developers, architects, system administrators, and other stakeholders to architect and configure Dev, Stage, QA, and Prod environments in AWS (VPC, subnets, Security groups, EC2 instances, load balancer, Database, Redis, Route53, etc.).⦿ Design and implement end-to-end Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines using both Jenkins and AWS pipeline.⦿ Automate the deployment and testing of resources using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform and CloudFormation) through pipelines using DevOps principles, allowing customers to rapidly build, test, and release code while minimizing errors.⦿ Work with developers to build, deploy, and orchestrate containers using Docker and Kubernetes.⦿ Provide technical guidance and mentoring to peers, less experienced engineers, and client personnel.⦿ Design for high availability and business continuity using self-healing-based architectures, fail-over routing policies, multi-AZ deployment of EC2 instances, ELB health checks, Auto Scaling, and other disaster recovery models.⦿ Monitor and optimize the environment to ensure costs and performance scale on demand.⦿ Work with clients to understand their workflows, including strengths and weaknesses, to identify new tech/solutions/improvements to make processes more efficient.⦿ Work closely with customers, internal staff, and other stakeholders to determine planning, implementation, and integration of system-oriented projects.⦿ Design and develop aspects of the migration journey—assess, mobilize, and migrate phases—including leveraging CART, ADS, Migration Evaluator, DMS, CloudEndure, etc.
