Sandeep Kumar — DevOps Engineer

I am a seasoned Platform and DevOps Engineer with 11+ years of hands-on experience in designing, deploying, and managing high-performance infrastructure for large-scale systems across telecom, fintech, and media streaming domains. My expertise lies in building scalable, secure, and highly available platforms by blending traditional infrastructure knowledge with modern DevOps and SRE practices. At Airtel Africa, I’ve led major initiatives such as the AirtelTV streaming platform deployment and the implementation of real-time data pipelines using Confluent Kafka CDC for critical data replication between DC and DR environments. These efforts improved data reliability, reduced downtime, and supported millions of concurrent users. My core skills include Kubernetes (Helm, Ingress, Istio, custom CRDs), Apache Kafka (Cloudera & Confluent), PostgreSQL, Cassandra, MongoDB, Kong Gateway, ELK Stack, Prometheus, Grafana, Terraform, and GitOps. I have deep experience managing microservices, optimizing performance, and automating infrastructure through CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code. I also bring strong experience in observability, alerting, secrets management, and debugging production issues through centralized logging and custom monitoring. I’ve enabled secure API exposure through Kong Enterprise and integrated advanced security policies using OPA Gatekeeper. Whether working on fintech integrations, telecom-grade APIs, or media delivery platforms, I strive to deliver systems that are reliable, efficient, and built for scale. Currently, I’m upskilling in AWS and cloud-native system design to drive digital transformation with automation and cloud adoption. Let’s connect if you're building resilient systems and looking for engineers who can own and evolve complex infrastructure.
