- Provisioned and maintained AWS infrastructure using Terraform, leveraging modular code design and automated pipelines to manage configuration changes, standardize environment provisioning, and minimize manual drift
- Optimized and debugged Jenkins CI/CD pipelines by resolving build-stage failures and configuration issues, and integrated Trivy and SonarQube to enhance code quality and reduce critical/high vulnerabilities, ensuring reliable and secure application delivery.
- Investigated P2/P3 incidents in non-production environments and supported production RCAs, coordinating cross-team remediation and documenting root causes to prevent recurrence.
- Built and maintained Docker images based on developer requirements, enforcing image hygiene and vulnerability scanning to ensure consistent, secure, and reliable containerized
- Deployed microservices on Amazon EKS clusters using Helm, troubleshooting pod-level issues such as CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, and image pull errors to maintain stable application performance.
- Managed EKS cluster lifecycle, including version upgrades, by performing pre-upgrade checks, executing controlled upgrades, and conducting post-upgrade validation to ensure cluster stability and application health with minimal disruption.
- Automated Linux server configuration with Ansible roles and playbooks, standardizing package installation, user management, and configuration drift remediation across environments.
- Coordinated with Cloud and InfoSec teams to perform monthly OS patching on AWS EC2 and on prem servers, conducting pre and post validation to ensure application stability and server health.
- Contributed to AWS cost optimization by identifying unused EBS volumes, oversized EC2 instances, and outdated S3 objects, and implementing S3 lifecycle policies and right-sizing recommendations to reduce cloud costs by ~15% without impacting performance.
- Monitored servers, applications, and Kubernetes clusters using Prometheus and Grafana , leveraging existing dashboards and alerts for CPU, memory, pod restarts, and service uptime to proactively detect issues, and used ELK stack for log analysis and troubleshooting to improve system reliability and incident resolution.
- Documented infrastructure updates, deployment procedures, SOPs, and RCA reports in Confluence, ensuring audit-ready documentation and clear team communication.
