Experience

1. Senior Aws Cloud Devops Platform Engineer

   7-Eleven

   Jan 2023 — Present

   Implement containerization strategies using Docker and Kubernetes (EKS), optimizing resource usage and improving cost efficiency by reducing infrastructure over-provisioning by 25%, while enforcing image scanning and runtime security policies using tools like Trivy and AWS GuardDuty. • Played a key role in a cloud migration project, moving legacy applications from on-premise infrastructure to AWS, which included re-architecting services for scalability and implementing IaC with Terraform—resulting in improved system reliability and cost savings of over 25%. • Designed and maintained observability platforms with ELK Stack, Dynatrace, Prometheus, and Grafana, enabling real-time monitoring, root-cause analysis, and proactive incident detection across distributed systems.• Implemented automation frameworks and API integrations to streamline log ingestion, alerting, and dashboard provisioning, which reduced manual configuration overhead and improved system reliability.• Applied Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices by embedding SLIs, SLOs, and error budgets into monitoring pipelines, driving service resiliency and operational excellence in production environments.• Implement and manage AWS Organizations across 20+ accounts, enforcing 30+ service control policies (SCPs) and AWS Config rules to ensure governance, security, and compliance with enterprise standards, reducing misconfigurations by 40%. • Automated build and test workflows for containerized microservices using AWS CodeBuild, Jenkins, and GitHub Actions within CI/CD pipelines, resulting in a 40% reduction in deployment time and consistent build environments across teams. • Lead incident management, customer escalation resolution, and root cause analysis efforts, supporting 24x7 operations and improving system uptime to 99.99%, while cutting average incident resolution time by 50%.
