About

Engineering to solve complex problems: Passionate about Technology. Interested in navigating the job market, want a personalized review of your resume, curious about GRE preparation? Send me a request at - https://lnkd.in/gqyxZzwa During my childhood, I had limited access to technology/guidance that's why I decided to be a part of the Tech industry where I could learn, collaborate with engineers, and make end products accessible to millions of users. I have experience in working with large scale distributed systems, building micro-services/REST APIs, Application Deployment, Container-based technologies like Docker, Kubernetes, Packer and cloud based Azure Networking workflows. Building and contributing to large scale infrastructure services thereby creating an impact for the end consumers.
