DevOps Engineer / Cloud Infrastructure / Kubernetes
I am a DevOps Engineer with 2+ years of experience building, automating, and securing cloud infrastructure on AWS and Azure across high-growth product and enterprise environments.
I am proficient in Kubernetes (EKS), Terraform, Terragrunt, CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code. I hold an AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate certification and have a track record of cutting cloud costs, reducing deployment times, managing P0 incidents, and hardening infrastructure security in production.
Currently, I work as a DevOps Engineer I at Licious, Bangalore — India's leading online meat and seafood brand. Previously, I spent two years at CSG International, where I led infrastructure migrations, built CI/CD pipelines, and deployed environments that contributed $25M in revenue.
Experience
DevOps Engineer I — Licious
- Identified and eliminated cloud cost inefficiencies, reducing AWS spend by $5,400 in the first month through resource rightsizing and optimization.
- Provisioned and managed cloud infrastructure using Terraform, including RDS, SQS, ElastiCache, and S3; implemented fine-grained access control within EKS clusters using RBAC and IAM roles.
- Served as on-call engineer, triaging and resolving P0 alerts for application and RDS incidents, ensuring high availability and minimal business impact.
- Conducted security analysis of existing cloud infrastructure and implemented remediation measures to harden configurations and reduce attack surface across AWS environments.
DevOps Engineer — CSG International
- Migrated production infrastructure from AWS Elastic Beanstalk to Kubernetes (EKS) and upgraded EKS clusters from 1.31 to 1.32 with node rotation, reducing release times by 25% with zero downtime.
- Provisioned and configured production EKS cluster on AWS, including EC2, RDS, S3, and load balancers to support scalable, resilient application deployments.
- Built and integrated a GitLab CI/CD pipeline for infrastructure repositories, automating validation, plan, and apply stages; reduced deployment errors by 35% and improved delivery speed by 40%.
- Deployed the eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) environment using Terraform for clients Telenor and Lyse, contributing $25M in revenue while reducing operational overhead.
- Streamlined deployments of AWS Lambda and Glue functions alongside Redash, reducing manual effort and deployment time by 45%.
- Engineered a cost-optimisation solution using Python and AWS Lambda to schedule start/stop of non-production servers, achieving $80K in annual AWS cost savings.
DevOps Engineer Intern — CSG International
- Deployed updated product releases with new microservices and infrastructure changes, reducing deployment time by 22%.
- Configured and validated environment variables for the QA environment, improving deployment efficiency by 17%.
- Monitored and troubleshot cloud infrastructure using EC2, S3, CloudWatch, VPC, IAM, and Prometheus–Grafana, reducing incident response time by 30%.
- Designed scalable multi-environment infrastructure using AWS and Terraform, achieving a 30% reduction in deployment time and 25% decrease in operational costs.
Projects
IaC Migration
- Refactored infrastructure codebase, migrating from Terraform workspaces to Terragrunt to improve modularity, reusability, and scalability across environments.
- Decommissioned Terraform workspace-managed AWS resources and reprovisioned them using Terragrunt with no service disruption.
- Automated infrastructure deployments via Terragrunt, enabling self-service provisioning for 15+ engineers and significantly boosting team productivity.
CI/CD Pipeline Implementation
- Developed and deployed a CI/CD pipeline using EKS and AKS for containerised web application deployment, integrating AWS CodeBuild for automated builds from GitHub.
- Reduced deployment times by 50% and increased release frequency by 30%.
