Platform engineering, end to end

I’m a Senior Platform Engineer specializing in AWS, Kubernetes (EKS), Terraform & Vault, CI/CD, Observability and AI/ML enablement. I help organizations design, migrate and operate reliable cloud-native platforms — from monoliths to microservices and serverless.

I’ve built end-to-end CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Jenkins and GitLab, and run EKS upgrades (v1.2x → v1.3x) with zero downtime. Beyond delivery, I’m one of the organizers of KSUG.AI (KubeSmart & AI User Group) in Bangalore, India, speak at conferences, and help hire and mentor engineering teams.
