About Me & Technical Background

Building reliable infrastructure through automation, tooling, and disciplined engineering practices.

I’m a network automation and DevOps-focused engineer with over 10 years of experience designing, operating, and improving cloud and on-prem infrastructure across large enterprises and smaller organizations. I’ve worked across industries including retail, financial services, and healthcare, supporting complex hybrid environments at scale.

My background spans traditional network engineering, systems engineering, and cloud engineering, with a long-standing focus on automation, reliability, and operational tooling. I treat infrastructure the same way software teams treat code — version-controlled, testable, and delivered through CI/CD pipelines to make change safer, repeatable, and easier to reason about.

Network and infrastructure automation using Python, Ansible, and Terraform
CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and network changes
Cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, OCI) and hybrid cloud integrations
On-prem data center networking (Cisco, Juniper, Linux)
NetBox as a source of truth for inventory, IPAM, and automation workflows
Reducing manual effort and operational risk through Git-driven standardization

I’m especially interested in bridging the gap between traditional networking practices and modern DevOps operating models — standardizing how infrastructure is defined, deployed, and monitored to improve reliability while reducing operational overhead.
