Vikash K. — DevOps Engineer

I’m a DevOps Engineer focused on building scalable, secure, and cost-optimized infrastructure. With 4+ years of experience across on-premise and AWS environments, I design hybrid architectures that combine automation, observability, and financial efficiency. I’ve deployed and managed on-prem Kubernetes clusters (via kubeadm) and AWS EKS clusters (IPv6) using Karpenter for intelligent auto-scaling. My experience spans CI/CD automation, infrastructure as code, observability stacks, and blockchain platforms ensuring reliability, visibility, and compliance across the stack. I believe modern DevOps engineering is a balance of automation, insight, and cost control leveraging BOQ planning, FinOps, and continuous optimization to deliver business-aligned infrastructure at scale. ⚙️ Technical Skills & Expertise Kubernetes & Containers: On-prem (kubeadm) + AWS EKS (IPv6) with Karpenter Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, Ansible, and AWS native tooling CI/CD & DevSecOps: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, GitOps; SonarQube for code quality, Trivy for image security Observability & Logging: Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, EFK (Elasticsearch-Fluentd-Kibana), OpenSearch, and advanced alert tuning for SLAs Blockchain Infrastructure: Self-managed Hyperledger Fabric clusters with secure networking and peer lifecycle automation Messaging & Caching: Kafka (Raft + Zookeeper), Redis Sentinel AI Infrastructure: Containerized LLaMA 3 (1.8B) inference workloads Cost Optimization: BOQ creation, AWS right-sizing, VPC endpoint optimization, FinOps culture 🏆 Key Achievements Built and maintained hybrid Kubernetes clusters across on-prem and AWS EKS Delivered 60% faster deployments through CI/CD automation with Jenkins, SonarQube, and Trivy Designed and implemented observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, OpenSearch) with optimized alerting Managed Hyperledger Fabric deployments ensuring stability and secure upgrade paths Achieved 99.9% SLA uptime through proactive monitoring and performance tuning Reduced AWS spend using Karpenter scaling, BOQ analysis, and FinOps practices 🌱 Current Focus Hybrid DevOps architecture and infrastructure scalability Kubernetes, GitOps, and AI-ready workloads DevSecOps, observability, and cost optimization Blockchain-enabled backend infrastructure 💬 Passionate about automation, observability, and efficiency — continually exploring new ways to make infrastructure smarter and more reliable. 📫 thenameisvikash@gmail.com #DevOps #AWS #Kubernetes #EKS #Karpenter #Terraform #Docker #GitOps #Jenkins #SonarQube #Trivy
