Cloud Infrastructure Engineer
Sony India Software Centre (SISC)
- Contributed to the cloud infrastructure development of NOVA, an internal platform designed as an alternative to the Cisco Kenna vulnerability management system.
- Built AWS-based infrastructure components supporting scalable and secure cloud deployments.
- Implemented EC2 cost optimization pipelines to detect idle and over-provisioned compute resources.
- Developed automated workflows to identify unused cloud resources, improving infrastructure utilization and cost efficiency.
- Collaborated with cross-functional teams to integrate cloud monitoring and infrastructure automation features within the NOVA platform.
- Researched and implemented NLP-based text processing techniques (chunking, tokenization, embedding, quantization) to prepare training data for LLM models; observed ~2–5% improvement in model accuracy consistency per 1,000 training files added — validated through mathematical query testing with a team of 13–15 reviewers.
Projects
SalesSavvy — Containerized Full-Stack Application
- Architected and containerized a Spring Boot REST API + React.js application using a 3-container Docker setup — demonstrating end-to-end systems engineering ownership from application development to portable, deployment-ready infrastructure.
- Implemented Spring Security + JWT for stateless auth and defined multi-container orchestration, simulating real-world cloud-native deployment patterns on Linux environments.
PII Detection and Masking Pipeline
- Designed a serverless PII detection pipeline using AWS Lambda, S3, and Amazon Comprehend to automatically identify sensitive data across 80–100 multi-format files (CSV, TXT, JSON) per run.
- Implemented automated masking of detected PII while preserving raw and sanitized datasets separately in S3; applied IAM least-privilege access and S3 encryption (SSE-S3) for secure data handling.
- Enabled monitoring and auditability using CloudWatch Logs for traceable and scalable data processing.
Automated Detection of Idle and Over-Provisioned EC2 Resources
- Developed a serverless AWS cost optimization discovery system scanning 12–15 EC2 instances to identify idle instances, over-provisioned resources, and unattached EBS volumes.
- Implemented an event-driven pipeline using EventBridge and AWS Lambda to periodically analyze infrastructure utilization; retrieved CloudWatch CPU metrics to classify resources against predefined thresholds.
- Generated structured cost optimization reports stored in Amazon S3 with CloudWatch logging for auditability.
Generative AI Chatbot — Multi-Platform Implementation
- Built an interactive generative AI chatbot using AWS Q Business and Kiro, and replicated the implementation using Microsoft Copilot Studio — evaluating both AWS-native and non-AWS approaches to enterprise GenAI deployment.
- Implemented NLP text processing pipeline covering chunking, tokenization, embedding, and quantization to prepare and store training data in vector format, improving the model's ability to handle complex mathematical queries.
- Validated model performance with a team of 13–15 reviewers using structured test datasets — measured ~2–5% accuracy improvement per 1,000 training files added; foundational work intended to feed into an improved version of the NOVA platform's AI capabilities.
