Platform Engineer who builds the infrastructure that keeps applications alive at scale.

6+ years designing AWS architectures, automating deployments with Terraform and Kubernetes, and building CI/CD pipelines that ship code safely. AWS Solutions Architect Professional certified. Currently expanding into backend application development — because the best platform engineers understand the code running on their platforms.

Based in India, building production cloud platforms for US clients.

What I Build

  • Production infrastructure — reusable Terraform modules for VPC, EKS, RDS, and multi-region AWS architectures
  • Deployment pipelines — end-to-end CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Docker, and Kubernetes (blue-green, canary)
  • Observability systems — Prometheus, Grafana, AlertManager with custom dashboards and SLO tracking
  • Backend APIs — learning to build what runs on the platforms I design (Java, Spring Boot)
