Satyam Kumar — DevOps Engineer
Cloud Platform Engineer with 5 years building reliable, secure, and cost‑efficient platforms—automating CI/CD, optimising containerized apps, and hardening Linux-based systems at scale. Passionate about solving thorny technical debts of a product, reducing CVEs, and turning complex infra problems into simple, repeatable pipelines. Recent impact highlights: - Cut platform security exposure by 80% via large‑scale dependency and runtime upgrades (Node.js 10→16) with zero customer disruption. - Rescued a multi‑billion‑dollar on‑prem business from EOL in 2 months by upgrading Buildroot (2012→2025), Linux kernel, and enabling new hardware compatibility. - Orchestrated overnight recovery of 99% customer nodes after a critical outage and implemented preventive CI/CD quality gates. - Reduced container image sizes by 30% with multi‑stage builds and improved dependency hygiene; migrated distribution from Docker Hub to Amazon ECR to strengthen security and cut costs. What I work with: ECR, Docker, Ansible, Jenkins, Python, Bash, Buildroot Linux systems engineering: systemd/sysvinit services, GRUB/kernel boot params, rootfs/filesystems, Buildroot‑based images and automation. How I operate: Bias for automation, measurable outcomes, and safety in change: rollback plans, and secure artifact flows into restricted environments. Collaborative, documentation‑driven approach so fixes become repeatable pipelines and institutional knowledge—not heroics. Always taking initiative for getting hands, deep diving and coming up with innovative solutions to thorny complex problems. Open to Cloud/platform engineering roles focused on reliability, upgrades/migrations, CI/CD modernization, and Linux systems in demanding, security‑sensitive environments. Specialties: Kubernetes, Docker, Jenkins, Ansible, Python, Bash, Linux (systemd, GRUB, rootfs, filesystems), Buildroot, CVE remediation
