About
Platform Engineer | Developer Infrastructure · CI/CD · Internal Developer Platforms · AI-Powered EngineeringWith 14+ years of experience, I design and scale the infrastructure that empowers engineering teams to move faster, ship with confidence, and focus on what matters — building great products.I've delivered platforms across E-commerce, Real Estate Tech, Gaming, Healthcare, OTT, and Aviation, operating at the intersection of platform engineering, DevOps, and developer experience.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬★ WHAT I BUILDI don't just manage infrastructure — I build the systems that make engineering teams self-sufficient.◆ CI/CD & DEVELOPER TOOLINGEnd-to-end deployment pipelines with automated quality gates, security scanning, performance benchmarks, and fast feedback loops. From pre-commit hooks to local testing containers and intelligent test prioritisation — I help teams catch problems before they reach production.◆ INTERNAL DEVELOPER PLATFORMS & SELF-SERVICE INFRASTRUCTURESelf-service environments that eliminate bottlenecks. Engineering teams can provision infrastructure, manage test data, and deploy independently — without waiting on platform teams.◆ CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE & IaCScalable cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP using Terraform, Kubernetes, and Docker. Reduced infrastructure costs by ~60% through in-house platform development and optimised resource management.◆ AI-POWERED ENGINEERING INTELLIGENCEBuilt RAG-based platforms (AWS S3 + OpenSearch + Bedrock) that aggregate deployment signals, code metrics, and risk data — delivering dashboards that help teams predict failures, close gaps, and accelerate delivery.◆ MCP-BASED AUTOMATION SERVERSDesigned AI automation infrastructure enabling LLMs to intelligently generate, extend, and stabilise scripts — reducing toil and accelerating development cycles.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬★ IMPACT» 60% reduction in infrastructure costs through in-house platform development» Self-service developer environments that eliminated team bottlenecks» Automated risk analysis that improved deployment confidence across teams» Platforms delivered at scale across 6+ industries▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬★ TECH STACKAWS (S3, Lambda, Bedrock, OpenSearch) · Google Cloud · Kubernetes · Terraform · Ansible · Docker · GitHub Actions · TeamCity · Jenkins · Python · JavaScript/Node.js · Snowflake▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬» CERTIFICATIONS» Snowflake Data Engineering Professional» AWS Generative AI
