  • Worked on the following projects under this role ->
  • 1. Service Account Handling -
  • Created a self-service workflow solution to automate the provisioning and modification of Service Accounts. Helped in reducing the manual DevOps activities. Requestors have access to specify the roles/access they want for their accounts. The automation is smart enough to figure out the right roles following the Principle of Least Privilege. All requests will go for validation/approvals. Admins can roll back all the changes done by the automation with just 1 click.
  • 2. Release Management Plugin -
  • Did a POC on the existing Release Management plugin to manage the various tasks involved while deploying CITRUS releases. This includes enhancing the plugin to handle different Releases (Major/Minor), integrate with DevOps, take necessary approvals and track the build/test/deployment phases of the release.

  • SOP Automation - Worked on automating some pre-defined SOPs for my team.
  • Implementation: This involved downloading multiple (9-14) compressed log files (each >400 MB) in chunks over a server, decompressing those chunks, searching for the root cause (all done parallelly in threads), then updating the root cause on the corresponding ticket and closing it.
  • Result: Reduced the time taken to solve each ticket (approx 15 mins per ticket) to <1 min per ticket.
