Senior DevOps Engineer

I am a Senior DevOps Engineer with over 8 years of experience specializing in designing and scaling CI/CD platforms, Kubernetes-based infrastructure, and cloud-native systems within enterprise environments. My expertise lies in Release Engineering, infrastructure modernization, and managing major version upgrades of critical systems such as Solr, PostgreSQL, Kafka, and Zookeeper. I have a proven track record of transforming unstable delivery processes into standardized, highly available CI/CD platforms that support multiple development teams.

As a hands-on engineer with leadership experience, I am capable of driving infrastructure lifecycle management, cloud automation, and production-grade upgrade strategies, particularly in AWS environments. I have led initiatives to re-architect legacy CI/CD ecosystems into modern, standardized platforms using Jenkins and Helm, improving release lifecycle management and artifact versioning.

My experience includes managing AWS infrastructure components like EKS, EC2, RDS, SQS, and MSK, as well as automating provisioning with Terraform and Ansible. I have successfully led major version upgrades for Solr, PostgreSQL, Zookeeper, and MinIO, ensuring compatibility and stability across R&D environments. Additionally, I have driven runtime modernization efforts for Java and Node.js applications.

In leadership roles, I have managed DevOps teams, overseeing CI/CD, infrastructure, and release processes while owning production reliability, incident response, and platform SLIs/SLOs. I act as a bridge between development and infrastructure teams, fostering collaboration and driving DevOps culture and engineering standards.

My technical skills encompass a broad range of tools and technologies including Jenkins, Groovy, Terraform, Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Nexus, PostgreSQL, Solr, Prometheus, and scripting languages such as Bash, Python, and SQL. I am committed to continuous improvement and mentoring team members to achieve high performance and platform governance.
