DevOps Engineer
AWS-certified DevOps Engineer with 3.5+ years of experience building and owning cloud-native infrastructure for a high-volume fintech payment platform. I ship faster releases, drift-free infrastructure, and resilient Kubernetes platforms.

I'm a DevOps Engineer at AJ Techsoft, where I own the cloud platform for a high-volume fintech payment system running on AWS EKS. My day-to-day is split between Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and the kind of observability work that makes 3 AM pages a lot rarer.
Over the last 3.5+ years I've delivered measurable outcomes: ~60% faster release cycles, ~70% reduction in infrastructure provisioning time, and ~40% improvement in MTTR. I care about least-privilege security, zero-downtime releases, and giving developers a platform they actually like using.
Currently pursuing AWS SAA-C03 and CKA. Open to senior DevOps / Platform Engineering roles — including remote-first opportunities globally.

Project: Fintech Payment Platform — cloud-native microservices on AWS EKS handling high-volume payment transactions.
Designed and owned end-to-end pipelines (Jenkins + GitLab CI + GitHub Actions) integrating SonarQube SAST, Docker image builds to ECR, and automated EKS deployments — cutting release cycle time by ~60% and eliminating manual deployment errors across Dev, QA, and Prod.
Built reusable, modular Terraform configurations for EC2, RDS, EKS, VPC, and IAM — reducing environment provisioning time by ~70% (days → under 30 minutes) and enabling fully version-controlled, drift-free infrastructure.
Deployed and maintained a production EKS cluster serving 15+ microservices. Standardised all deployments with Helm charts; configured HPA and Cluster Autoscaler to absorb 3× traffic spikes with zero unplanned downtime.
Implemented blue-green and rolling update strategies for all production releases on the live payment platform, ensuring uninterrupted transaction processing during critical upgrades.
Built Prometheus + Grafana monitoring with custom dashboards (p99 latency, error rates, cluster health). Combined with ELK + CloudWatch — reduced MTTR by ~40%.
Designed multi-AZ VPC topologies with public/private subnet isolation, NAT gateways, and strict Security Group rules — separating payment databases from public endpoints and passing all internal security audits.
Enforced AWS IAM Least Privilege and Kubernetes RBAC across all services. Migrated secrets to AWS Secrets Manager; integrated SonarQube vulnerability scanning into CI.
Partnered with dev, QA, and product teams to streamline releases, mentored 2 junior engineers, and improved overall delivery velocity by ~45%.
