Building scalable, secure & production-grade cloud environments.

About Me

I'm a DevOps Engineer at SS&C Technologies, where I build and manage scalable, secure cloud environments on AWS. I hold a B.E. in Computer Engineering from Ajeenkya D Y Patil School of Engineering (CGPA 8.8).

My day-to-day involves authoring infrastructure as code with Terraform, automating configuration with Ansible, running CI/CD pipelines via Jenkins, and orchestrating containers with Kubernetes & Docker — all on Linux.

Beyond the terminal, I've built full-stack MERN projects, contributed freelance front-end work for startups, and travelled to China for a cross-cultural cloud infrastructure handover. I'm also active on LinkedIn (2K+ followers) sharing DevOps insights.
