ITCoordinates
- Kubernetes at scale — designed and ran containerized microservices on Docker/AKS, improving deployment speed by ~40% and ensuring consistent parity across dev, staging, and production.
- CI/CD pipelines — built Azure DevOps multi-stage YAML pipelines for build, test, security validation, and multi-environment releases, cutting release cycle time 30% with near-zero failed deployments.
- Infrastructure as Code — provisioned Azure VMs, VNets, Storage, and Key Vault via Terraform with remote state management, sustaining 99.9%+ uptime and disaster-recovery readiness.
- GitOps — implemented Argo CD for fully automated Kubernetes deployments with real-time Git-to-cluster sync and instant rollback via Git revert.
- Observability — built full-stack monitoring with Prometheus, Grafana, Azure Monitor, and Application Insights, reducing MTTR ~35% and unplanned downtime ~25% via SLO-based alerting.
- Automation — scripted infrastructure and operational workflows in Python, Bash, and PowerShell, cutting manual overhead ~50% and eliminating human-error incidents.
- DevSecOps & governance — enforced security scanning, RBAC, Azure Policy, and secrets management to meet enterprise compliance and governance standards.
- Resilient networking & DR — configured Load Balancers, Application Gateway, NSGs, Azure Firewall, VPN Gateways, Backup, and Site Recovery to support secure, highly available, business-continuity-ready connectivity.
- Incident leadership — led root-cause analysis across Kubernetes, Azure infrastructure, and CI/CD pipelines; authored runbooks and architecture docs that cut onboarding time ~30%.
