• Built and maintained reusable Terraform and CloudFormation IaC to provision EC2, VPC, IAM, RDS, S3, EBS, EFS, ELB, Route 53, and Auto Scaling across AWS environments, reducing manual provisioning and configuration drift.
• Automated AWS AMI build and deployment workflows through Jenkins, integrating configuration validation, smoke and performance testing, and versioned release artifacts to support repeatable deployments and rollback.
• Developed reusable Ansible Playbooks, Roles, and Dynamic Inventories for provisioning and configuration management, applying idempotent automation and structured YAML to maintain consistent environments.
• Used Ansible Tower to automate configuration, security hardening, vulnerability remediation, and patching across Linux environments, improving compliance and reducing manual operational effort.
• Developed reusable Python automation modules integrating REST APIs, Boto3, SQL, and AWS services for infrastructure provisioning, telemetry processing, deployment validation, compliance checks, capacity reporting, and operational automation.
• Built AI-assisted, event-driven workflows using Python, REST APIs, webhooks, Jenkins, AWS services, and LLMs to process telemetry, enrich alerts, recommend remediation, handle conditional actions, and automate selected operational responses.
• Supported AWS storage and backup automation across EBS, EFS, and S3 using Python, Ansible, Terraform, and REST APIs for lifecycle management, backup validation, recovery checks, health monitoring, and capacity reporting.
• Implemented automated validation and observability using pytest, Postman, CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK, improving deployment verification, monitoring, troubleshooting, and production reliability.
• Worked on modernizing legacy Java applications into Spring Boot microservices, containerizing with Docker and deploying through Kubernetes and Helm, with Git/PR workflows, rolling deployments, health checks, rollback, and production validation.
• Deployed and supported containerized microservices on OpenShift and Kubernetes, integrating Jenkins CI/CD, health checks, monitoring, rolling deployments, and automated rollback for reliable production releases.
• Collaborated with Development, QA, Infrastructure, Security, and Architecture teams to modernize legacy applications into cloud-native platforms, optimize deployment workflows, implement automation best practices, and deliver secure, scalable, highly available, and production-ready DevOps solutions.
