About

Hello and welcome! I'm a Lead Engineer with a strong foundation in DevOps practices, automation, and cloud infrastructure. My experience spans scripting-heavy engineering, performance tooling, and delivering scalable solutions across fintech, commercial finance, and stock market domains. Currently at Teknuova, and previously at Visible Alpha among others, I’ve worked closely on solving infrastructure and deployment challenges, using technologies like Golang, Terraform, Docker, AWS, and JMeter. My contributions often sit at the intersection of engineering and systems thinking — whether it's reducing provisioning time, improving performance testing workflows, or building automated tools that streamline day-to-day operations. I also feel glad to share that I've also been invited to share my experience on a conversation which can be found @https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTBkfTKTJr4 A few impact highlights: - Integrated a vulnerability management tool to reduce insecure code commits by 10%, improving baseline security - Automated AWS provisioning using Terraform, cutting infra setup time by 30% - Streamlined VM creation and DB restoration to save 50% in manual effort - Built a Golang-based backup management tool and automated shell tasks, saving ~$50K annually - Enhanced performance testing workflows with JMeter for system-level evaluations Over the years, I've built a versatile toolkit that supports both technical execution and higher-level architectural discussions. While I remain hands-on, I’m equally enthusiastic about roles that combine system design, platform thinking, and team collaboration — whether as an individual contributor or in a lead capacity. As part of my continuous learning, I recently completed a certification in system design to deepen my understanding of scalable, reliable architecture — a direction I’m increasingly excited to contribute toward alongside my existing DevOps and automation work. I’m always curious about how systems work at scale, and I value opportunities where engineering is as much about solving real-world problems as it is about writing code. Beyond work, you’ll often find me exploring reading, writing, and mythology — passions I occasionally blend into blog writing @https://blogofpankaj.blogspot.com/ Let’s connect and explore ideas, systems, and opportunities — across domains or across borders.
