Adept at bridging development and operations teams to accelerate software delivery while maintaining security and operational excellence.


What I Do

  • Cloud & Platform Engineering
    • Design and operate scalable, secure, and cost-efficient cloud infrastructure

    • Build Kubernetes-based platforms for applications, data workloads, and ML systems

    • Implement automated deployments, environment isolation, and release strategies

    • Optimize performance, reliability, and resource usage across environments

  • Identity & Access Management
    • Deploy and manage Keycloak as an Identity Provider (IdP) for secure authentication

    • Implement SSO, OAuth2, OIDC, and SAML-based integrations

    • Manage realms, clients, user federation, custom mappers, and fine-grained access

    • Secure internal and external applications with centralized identity policies

  • GitOps & Workflow Automation
    • Implement GitOps workflows using Argo CD for declarative, automated deployments

    • Design & maintain Argo Workflows for internal and external automation pipelines

    • Improve deployment consistency, traceability, and rollbacks with Git-driven ops

  • Infrastructure Automation & DevOps
    • Automate infrastructure provisioning with Terraform (modular, reusable stacks)

    • Develop CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and Jenkins

    • Implement security practices, policy-as-code

  • Observability & Reliability Engineering
    • Build observability using Prometheus, Loki, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry

    • Implement metrics, logs, traces, and alerts for actionable insights

    • Improve system reliability through monitoring dashboards, SLOs, and alerting

  • Cloud & Platform Security
    • Implement security best practices across cloud and Kubernetes environments

    • Manage identity and access using IAM, Kubernetes RBAC, and policy-based controls

    • Enhance application and platform security through secret management and Vault integrations

    • Work closely with teams to ensure compliance, reduce attack surface, and maintain strong security posture

  • Platform Support for Engineering, Data & AI Teams
    • Enable engineering teams with stable, automated deployment pipelines

    • Support ML workloads with optimized Kubernetes deployment strategies

    • Collaborate cross-functionally to improve developer experience and platform usability
