I'm a DevOps Engineer based in Pune, India 🇮🇳, focused on building and automating reliable cloud infrastructure — from Terraform IaC and Kubernetes orchestration to Jenkins CI/CD pipelines and AWS multi-environment deployments.
My background in Aeronautical Engineering gave me a systems-first mindset: reliability, fault tolerance, and precision aren't optional — they're the foundation of everything I build.

| Responsibility | Impact |
|---|---|
| Provisioned AWS infrastructure (EKS, VPC, IAM, S3, ALB, RDS) via Terraform | Consistent, repeatable deployments — reduced manual provisioning effort |
| Built and optimized Jenkins CI/CD pipelines integrated with GitHub | ↓ Deployment time 45 min → 10 min (77% faster) |
| Implemented GitOps workflows using ArgoCD — Git as single source of truth for Kubernetes deployments | Automated app delivery and maintained environment consistency across clusters |
| Configured K8s Deployments, Ingress, RBAC, ConfigMaps, Secrets, HPA | Scalable, secure microservices delivery on Amazon EKS |
| Containerized microservices with rolling & blue-green deployment strategies | Reliable, zero-downtime releases across environments |
| Built observability stack with Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, CloudWatch | Improved observability and troubleshooting through proactive alerting and dashboards |
| Integrated DevSecOps with Trivy image scanning & SonarQube | Zero critical CVEs in production; code quality gate enforcement |
| Automated Linux ops with Bash scripting | Eliminated repetitive manual tasks across the infrastructure lifecycle |

Production-grade microservices platform simulating a real enterprise DevOps environment — end-to-end from application code to cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and observability.
| Layer | Stack |
|---|---|
| Application | Spring Boot Microservices + React Frontend |
| Infrastructure | Terraform (VPC, EKS, RDS, S3, Security Groups) — modular configurations |
| Orchestration | Kubernetes on Amazon EKS · Deployments, Services, Ingress, RBAC, ConfigMaps, Secrets, HPA |
| CI/CD | Jenkins multi-stage pipeline — Maven builds → SonarQube → Docker → Kubernetes |
| Observability | Prometheus + Grafana monitoring |
| Security | Trivy image scanning · SonarQube code quality gates |
Key outcomes: 77% deployment time reduction (45 min → 10 min) · Zero critical CVEs in production
Full-stack flight booking system with a complete DevOps pipeline — multi-stage Docker builds, Kubernetes orchestration, HPA auto-scaling, and Terraform-provisioned AWS infrastructure.
| Area | Implementation |
|---|---|
| Containerization | Docker multi-stage builds across multiple services |
| Orchestration | Kubernetes with zero-downtime rolling updates + NetworkPolicies for traffic isolation |
| Auto-scaling | HPA configured for CPU & memory-based scaling |
| Infrastructure | Terraform-provisioned EKS, RDS, and S3 on AWS |
| Project | Description | Stack |
|---|---|---|
| jenkins-cicd-pipelines | 9 Jenkinsfile pipelines — build, deploy, SSH agent, S3 artifacts, Terraform EKS provisioning | Jenkins · Groovy · AWS |
| terraform-aws-iac | IaC modules — VPC, EC2, IAM, S3, remote state, multi-environment | Terraform · AWS |
| student-app-kubernetes | Three-tier app — StatefulSet, HPA, Secrets, PVC, Ingress | K8s · Spring Boot · MariaDB |
| nodejs-app-jenkins-pipeline | Jenkins pipeline: Docker build → AWS EKS deploy | Jenkins · Docker · EKS |
| crud-app-aws-ec2-rds | Spring Boot + React CRUD app on EC2 with managed RDS | AWS · Spring Boot · React |
Practical next steps from my current foundation — focused, achievable, and directly applicable to junior DevOps work:
- Kubernetes network policies — controlling pod-to-pod traffic and namespace isolation
- AWS Secrets Manager — centralized secrets storage and rotation integrated with EKS workloads
- Helm chart authoring — writing and packaging custom Helm charts, beyond using pre-built ones
- Cloud cost basics — instance rightsizing, reserved vs on-demand tradeoffs, identifying cost anomalies
- Prometheus alerting rules — writing custom alert rules and routing notifications through Alertmanager
