About

I’m a Software Engineer at Microsoft, currently working on Azure BCDR (Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery) ensuring that customers' workloads stay resilient and recoverable in the face of disruptions. My work focuses on building and maintaining cloud-native solutions that are scalable, extensible, and operationally efficient. Previously at Cloudera, I was part of the Cloud Infrastructure team where I orchestrated Kubernetes and Docker environments and managed large-scale clusters using tools like Ansible and CI/CD pipelines. This role gave me a strong foundation in DevOps and internal infrastructure automation. I’m also exploring the open-source world, contributing to projects like Velero and Apache YuniKorn, and continuously growing in the cloud-native ecosystem. My technical toolkit includes C/C++, Golang, Python, JavaScript, and C#, along with deep experience in Kubernetes and AKS.

Aug 2024 – Present · 1 yr 9 mos · Hyderabad, Telangana, India · On-site

I’ve been part of the Azure BCDR (Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery) team, where I’m learning how to build scalable, cloud-native solutions for backup and recovery.
My work has primarily focused on vaulted backups for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and improving resiliency around container workloads and disk backups.
I've had the chance to understand the core components of Azure’s BCDR stack and contribute to features that help customers protect their applications during outages. I’ve also started contributing to Velero, an open-source tool.
Additionally, I’ve worked on triaging and resolving customer-reported issues, which has helped me grow my understanding of real-world distributed systems and cloud-native reliability challenges.

Software Engineer at Cloudera with a focus on private cloud compute operations. As a key member of the orchestrator team, I specialize in managing and developing Kubernetes and Docker clusters on internal infrastructure.
Leveraging CI CD tools, Ansible and in-house applications, I efficiently host and oversee these clusters, contributing to streamlined processes and enhanced efficiency.
One of my notable achievements has been driving a substantial reduction in cloud costs for public cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and GCP. Through strategic optimization and innovative approaches, I successfully contributed to saving between $30,000 to $50,000 per month. This accomplishment earned me a recognition award within the organization.
