I’m a results-oriented Platform & Infrastructure Leader with 20+ years of hands-on experience building, scaling, and securing large distributed systems. I have successfully led global cloud transformations, cost optimization initiatives, and cross-region operations at scale.At PayU, I led architecture renewal and cloud cost optimization, resulting in monthly infrastructure savings of over USD 225,000+ through strategic migration, rightsizing, and automation. During DR drills, we slashed failover time from 2 hours to 32 minutes, outperforming recovery time targets.I’ve driven migrations to Kubernetes (EKS), built Infrastructure as Code platforms (Terraform / Ansible), and managed monitoring / observability frameworks (Prometheus, ELK, Grafana) to reduce MTTR by over 40%. I oversaw audits (ITGC, ISO27001) and worked with compliance teams to maintain security posture.My work has spanned remote and hybrid teams across India, collaborating with global partners and cross-border stakeholders. I thrive in dynamic environments and love solving large-scale, ambiguity-laden engineering challenges.
