About me

I'm a DevOps & SRE architect from India with 10+ years of experience, including 9+ years building and running cloud infrastructure on AWS, Oracle Cloud and Kubernetes. I enjoy turning fragile, manual operations into automated platforms that teams can trust.

At StashFin I was instrumental in scaling a consumer lending platform from inception to 5 million monthly users, running 75+ production applications at 99.99% uptime. Today I'm an Architect at Persistent Systems, working on Oracle Cloud cost visibility and infrastructure as code.

What I'm doing

  • Cloud infrastructure

    Designing reliable, scalable platforms on AWS, Oracle Cloud and Azure with Terraform and Terragrunt.

  • Kubernetes & containers

    Running production workloads on EKS with Docker, Istio and ArgoCD.

  • CI/CD & automation

    Fully automated Jenkins and GitHub Actions pipelines that ship faster with fewer surprises.

  • Reliability & cost

    Observability with New Relic, Grafana and Loki, plus FinOps that cut cloud spend without cutting uptime.
