Nikhil S Bhat — DevOps Engineer

An avid enthusiast dedicated to automating tasks that impede progress, guided by the mantra "With ideas and access to Google, any solution can be implemented," I am a self-motivated individual who has been immersed in DevOps methodologies for over 8 years. I possess practical experience in streamlining project workflows through automation using a diverse range of tools such as Packer, Consul, Terraform, Kubernetes, Servicemesh, Chef, Ansible, Prometheus, Thanos, Elasticsearch, and Kafka, among others, across various public and private cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, GCP, and OpenStack. Key accomplishments include: * Developing Helm plugins helm-images and helm-drift, a Terraform provider for GoCD and K3D. Prometheus exporter, CLI, and Golang SDK for GoCD. * Initiating projects such as Neuron, Cloudy, Config, Terragen, and Knife-Dengine. Visit my website for further details. * Pioneering a cloud-agnostic solution utilizing configuration management tools (Chef, Ansible), enabling seamless resource creation and management across multiple public clouds and OpenStack. I am deeply passionate about open-source platforms, having both created and contributed to several projects. My enthusiasm for building digital infrastructure stems from its transformative potential in expediting project launches and market penetration. Automation is my forte, and I firmly believe in prioritizing technologies over tools, viewing the latter merely as facilitators of automation that can be replaced as needed. My approach centres on visualizing the end product or goal to drive automation efforts forward. I harbor no reservations about acquiring proficiency in new technologies or languages to accomplish objectives effectively.
