About

Principal DevOps Engineer with 12+ years of experience building and scaling secure, cloud-native infrastructure across industry leaders like Reliance Retail (Milkbasket), Paytm, and PayU. I specialize in Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Kubernetes (GKE/EKS/AKS), Terraform, and CI/CD automation using Jenkins and ArgoCD. I lead platform stability, observability (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki), and compliance (PCI-DSS, ISO) while managing cross-functional DevOps teams. Currently driving zero-downtime migrations (AWS to GCP), cost optimization, and system uptime (99.99%) at scale for over 20+ microservices and real-time platforms. ⚡ Keywords: DevSecOps | SRE | Infrastructure Automation | Platform Reliability | Cloud-Native Architectures | Security & Compliance 🔍 Open to leadership and architect-level roles in Cloud, DevOps, or SRE — remote or hybrid.
