As a DevOps Engineer at Traffic Tech Inc., I played a key role in designing and managing cloud infrastructure, optimizing deployment pipelines, and enhancing overall system performance. With a strong focus on automation and security, I successfully implemented and maintained scalable environments across AWS and Azure, directly contributing to increased operational efficiency and cost savings.Key Contributions:Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Leveraged Terraform, ARM templates, and Ansible to establish scalable, reliable, and cost-effective cloud environments on both AWS and Azure. Implemented IaC principles to ensure consistent provisioning and configuration across multiple environments, reducing infrastructure setup time by 30%.CI/CD Pipeline Development: Developed and streamlined CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps and Jenkins to support automated deployment for microservices running on Azure Container Instances and Kubernetes. This reduced deployment times and minimized manual errors, enabling faster, more reliable software releases.Containerization & Orchestration: Spearheaded the adoption of Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration, implementing Helm charts for version control and GitOps practices for deployment consistency. Managed multi-cluster Kubernetes environments, optimizing deployment efficiency and ensuring high availability.Performance Monitoring & Uptime: Configured and deployed monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and Azure Monitor to track key performance metrics across distributed systems, resulting in improved reliability and achieving 99.9% uptime for mission-critical applications. Security & Compliance: Ensured robust cloud security by setting up RBAC, VPC configurations, and MFA. Integrated Azure Key Vault and AWS IAM policies to control access and protect sensitive data, aligning cloud architecture with industry standards such as GDPR and HIPAA for risk and compliance management.
