Rakesh Kumar — Software Engineer

Network & Cloud Engineer with 7+ years of experience designing and operating enterprise-scale WAN/LAN and hybrid cloud infrastructure across global environments. I specialize in building secure, scalable, and high-availability network architectures across AWS and Google Cloud Platform, with hands-on experience in VPC design, routing, VPNs, and private connectivity solutions such as Interconnect, Equinix, and Alkira. My recent focus has been on network automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC), where I’ve used Python, Terraform, and GitHub Actions to streamline operations and reduce manual effort. One of my key contributions includes implementing automation to provision and manage DNS records directly from Jira workflows, improving deployment speed and consistency. I also bring strong expertise in network security (Palo Alto, Juniper, Fortinet), ensuring robust segmentation, policy enforcement, and secure hybrid connectivity across environments. Currently, I work on designing and troubleshooting cloud and hybrid network solutions, collaborating closely with cloud, DevOps, and platform teams to deliver reliable and scalable infrastructure.
