ACCENTURE
- Designed and implemented multi-stage CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps (YAML) and GitHub Actions, reducing deployment time by 30% and enabling end-to-end deployments in under 60 seconds.
- Containerized 10+ microservices across 2 development teams using Docker and Helm, improving deployment consistency and portability across environments.
- Deployed and managed containerized workloads on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and AWS EKS, handling rolling updates, autoscaling, and production incident resolution.
- Automated AWS and Azure infrastructure provisioning using Terraform modules with remote state management (S3 + DynamoDB locking), enabling consistent multi-team infrastructure workflows.
- Built an MCP-powered AI agent in Python integrating Accenture's internal AI platform, automating production database querying and reducing incident investigation time from 30 minutes to under 2 minutes — adopted by 100+ users across APM, development, and leadership teams.
- Integrated Azure Key Vault with CI/CD pipelines for secure secret management, eliminating hardcoded credentials across deployment workflows.
- Implemented GitOps practices using ArgoCD for declarative Kubernetes deployments, improving deployment traceability and rollback reliability.
- Configured Prometheus and Grafana monitoring stack on Kubernetes using Helm (kube-prometheus-stack), with custom alert rules for memory and CPU thresholds.
- Led knowledge transfer sessions for 60+ developers on Dockerfile best practices, CI/CD workflows, and Azure DevOps — improving team self-sufficiency and reducing DevOps bottlenecks.
- Introduced Git branching strategies and webhook configurations across multiple development teams, improving code collaboration and deployment traceability.
Projects
DevOps Capstone Project
View Project- Built a production-grade Flask application with liveness/readiness probes, resource limits, ConfigMap injection, and 2-replica Kubernetes deployment.
- Implemented end-to-end GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline (test → build → push → deploy) with DockerHub registry and commit SHA tagging — full deployment in 55 seconds.
- Provisioned AWS infrastructure (VPC, subnet, IGW, security groups, EC2) using Terraform modules with S3 remote state and DynamoDB locking.
MCP-Powered Production Monitoring Agent
- Identified manual production DB querying as a bottleneck — each investigation taking 30+ minutes — and self-initiated an automation solution.
- Built an AI agent using Python and MCP framework integrated with Accenture's enterprise AI platform, enabling natural language querying of production databases.
- Delivered POC within 20-day deadline for leadership demo; solution adopted by 100+ users across APM, development, and leadership teams.
