Vaibhav Singh — DevOps Engineer

“Technologies should be implemented to solve a problem statement, Problem statement should not be generated to implement technologies.” My passion to automate repetitive tasks started from my college days where I started writing automation scripts in VBScript, VBA and Core Java. Doing same tasks again and again is never a fun. I started my career as an Application Packager. This technology is used to automate the repetitive task of installing and configuring applications as per standards by using tools like InstallShield, Wise Package Studio. It gave me a very good understanding of applications and Operating System. Few of the technologies and languages I had worked are MSI, App-V, ThinApp, Citrix Packaging, Application compatibility and remediation, AutoIT, VBScript and PowerShell. Later I moved to Windows Operating System deployment. Deploying a windows standard image which will have all the standard applications with their standard configurations. I have used MDT (Microsoft Deployment Toolkit) and SCCM. I started my journey in Jio with a role to automate repetitive Datacenter related tasks for our Operations and Implementation team. We as a team have built end to end provisioning framework used for deploying Operating System of any flavor. This framework is a combinations of micro services architecture using Dockers, python flask’ REST API, Golang, RabbitMQ, PowerShell, AutoIT. It has various modules like ILO configuration, Firmware Update, RAID configuration, OS Provisioning and Post OS configurations. I have worked on tools like HP Operations Orchestration and VMware vRealize Operations Manager, SCCM, HP Server Automation, GIT, Jenkins, Docker. Currently I am working as a Python developer in a project where we are trying to solve the challenges faced by small and big companies to onboard different cloud provider to their ecosystem. Every cloud provider have a different naming conventions for the resources and process. So for those companies it becomes difficult to manage different cloud providers as they need skillset of each cloud provider. I am a strong believer of open source so I try to contribute to solutions on technical groups on LinkedIn, Facebook and other forums.
