DevOps Engineer Sigma Software Group Canada Apr 2025 – Present

• Architected a multi-environment CI/CD pipeline framework using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and reusable shared libraries, enabling full automation across build, test, and deploy stages for 15+ EKS-hosted microservices.

• Designed scalable, secure AWS infrastructure with Terraform modules (EC2, RDS, ALBs, IAM, VPCs), achieving 100% environment parity and supporting automated version control using S3 and DynamoDB backends.

• Deployed and managed Docker containers with Helm on Kubernetes, optimizing cluster operations via HPA, node affinity, and resource quota configurations, which improved application uptime and deployment reliability by 40%.

• Integrated observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, AWS CloudWatch Logs) into deployment workflows for real-time monitoring, SLA breach alerting, and capacity planning across all environments.

• Automated OS-level and app-level configurations via Ansible playbooks, including hardened SSH access, Nginx reverse proxy setup, SSL cert handling (Let's Encrypt), and OS patching for 30+ EC2 instances.

• Reduced average deployment time by 50% through Docker layer caching, parallelized CI steps, and optimized remote runners for containerized artifact delivery.

• Enforced security controls using AWS IAM policies, S3 encryption protocols, and bucket lifecycle rules for automated archival and compliance with data governance mandates. Cloud & DevOps Engineer Systech Solutions India Jul 2021 – Aug 2024

• Led AWS infrastructure provisioning using Terraform across dev, staging, and production environments, automating VPCs, subnets, route tables, NAT gateways, EC2 instances, RDS, IAM roles, and CloudWatch metrics to support dynamic scaling.

• Developed GitLab CI/CD pipelines integrated with SonarQube (code quality), Trivy (image scanning), and Helm (K8s deployments), enabling secure and consistent delivery of containerized apps to EKS.

• Managed 70+ Kubernetes-deployed containers with PVs, ingress controllers, and custom RBAC rules, while streamlining configuration with Helm templating for consistent rollout strategies.

• Automated RDS and S3 backups using AWS Lambda, implemented lifecycle policies, and validated snapshot restore flows to ensure enterprise-grade disaster recovery compliance.

• Conducted DevOps enablement workshops across cross-functional teams, covering GitFlow branching, secrets management via GitLab Vault + Parameter Store, and reusable Terraform best practices.

• Built centralized observability layer with ELK stack and CloudWatch, establishing real-time dashboards and system health alerts for all mission-critical services.

• Authored in-depth runbooks and SOPs for CI/CD incident resolution, resource saturation recovery, and Kubernetes pod failure handling, reducing MTTR by 50%. DevOps Engineer BigSpire Software India Apr 2019 – Dec 2020

• Created and maintained Jenkins jobs for internal Java and Python deployments, including chained builds, artifact versioning, and environment variable handling for mock production pipelines.

• Built and deployed Docker-based training environments using Compose, wrote Dockerfiles, defined healthchecks, and optimized container builds for student training simulations.

• Assisted in Minikube and Kubernetes (kubectl) setup, deploying demo services and troubleshooting container networking, volume issues, and pod-level access logs.

• Developed shell scripts to automate Developed shell scripts to automate system admin tasks such as user provisioning, access control, log rotation, and local backup scheduling on dev servers.

• Configured Nginx-based load balancing with SSL passthrough and sticky sessions for internal test environments running containerized apps on a local cluster.

• Documented DevOps onboarding processes via internal wiki pages, including step-by-step CI/CD guides, version control usage, and troubleshooting logs for new engineers.

• Participated in release planning and RCA post-mortems, shadowing senior engineers to learn rollback workflows and safe deployment recovery techniques. PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

CI/CD Pipeline Automation for Containerized Microservices

• Built CI/CD workflows in Jenkins and GitLab CI to automate the build, test, and deployment cycle of 12+ microservices using Docker and Kubernetes.

• Implemented dynamic environment handling using GitLab variables and Jenkins shared libraries, enabling reusable pipeline stages across dev, QA, and production environments with minimal duplication.

• Configured multi-environment deployment strategies, environment variables, and integrated monitoring with Prometheus for post-deploy validation.

Cloud Infrastructure Provisioning with Terraform
