About

DevOps & Cloud Engineer passionate about building secure, scalable, and cost-efficient infrastructure - the kind that just works. Currently working as an Associate DevOps Engineer at Techolution, where I've architected a Zero Trust GCP environment for a client - provisioning dev and production end-to-end (GKE, AlloyDB, Memorystore, Firestore, Cloud Run, Artifact Registry, GCS) deployed 80+ microservices. VPN-only ingress, and Cloud Armor WAF with OWASP Top 10 rules. VMs are Secured via IAP. Built event-driven workflows where GCS uploads trigger Cloud Run via Eventarc to invoke GKE services - all inside the VPC, zero public egress. Everything stays private, compliant, and auditable. Before that, I've worked across the stack - from disaster recovery of Kubernetes-based EU production environments (100+ microservices) at Accuknox, to building GitOps pipelines with ArgoCD, Helm, and Kustomize at Cloudraft, and contributing to CNCF Kepler (2x Docker image size reduction, ~10x CI build time improvement). I hold a CKA and GCP Associate Cloud Engineer certification, and I'm always exploring what's new in the cloud-native ecosystem - whether that's a new Kubernetes operator, an observability pattern, or a smarter way to cut cloud costs. Outside of work, I write technical blogs sharing real problems I've faced and how I solved them. If you're working on something interesting in the DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE space - or just want to geek out about Kubernetes - I'm always up for a conversation. Open to discussing DevOps / Platform Engineering / SRE opportunities. 📩 saurabhkr952@gmail.com

Techolution

Associate DevOps Engineer

Jan 2026 – Present · 5 mos · Hyderabad · Remote

  • Architected a Zero Trust GCP environment with zero public attack surface - securing GKE, AlloyDB, and VMs using private networking, IAP, VPN-only ingress, and Cloud Armor with no public IP exposure across infrastucture.
  • Enabled private service-to-service communcation between Cloud Run and GKE using VPC connectivity and Internal Load Balancers, ensuring all traffic remains within the private network.
  • Optimized infrastructure costs by automating lifeccle management of GKE node pools (spot instances) an AlloyDB using Cloud Scheduler.
  • Designed a Zero Tust database access solution for AlloyDB using Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP) and AlloyDB Auth Proxy - eliminating public IP exposure and enabling secur localhost connectivity for development teams.
