About

Certified Lead DevOps & Platform Engineer (CKA) with 7+ years of experience engineering secure, scalable platforms for global fintech enterprises (Visa, Standard Chartered). I don't just maintain infrastructure; I build internal platforms that accelerate developer velocity. I specialize in bridging the gap between operations, security, and cost-efficiency, with hands-on experience managing Hybrid Cloud environments (AWS/Azure). Most recently, I designed and built a full-stack CICD Assistant tool (Python/React) that cut pipeline setup time by 60%. Key Engineering Wins: *Cost Optimization: Drove cloud cost reductions of 15% via FinOps strategies and saved millions by leading a massive Hadoop-to-Tuskar migration. *DevSecOps Governance: Established mandatory security gates (Sonarqube, Checkmarx) across 100+ applications, shifting security left without slowing down releases. *Scale: Engineering and managing hybrid Kubernetes architectures (EKS, AKS, Kubeadm) for high-volume financial workloads. Passionate about "Engineering Productivity" and building self-service platforms that developers love to use.
