WORK HISTORY
Lead Platformops & Automation Devops, Kubernetes (Eks) @Business Wire
Toronto, ON, CA
Cloud & InfrastructureDesigned and provisioned AWS infrastructure (VPCs, subnets, security groups, Route 53, IAM) using Terraform, ensuring scalable and secure cloud environments.Implemented high-availability architectures across multiple AWS regions, improving uptime and disaster recovery readiness.Configured AWS networking services such as VPC peering, Transit Gateway, and Route 53 Resolver for hybrid cloud and multi-account DNS resolution.Kubernetes & DeploymentBuilt and managed Kubernetes (EKS) clusters with autoscaling, pod disruption budgets, and affinity rules to ensure workload resilience.Implemented service mesh integrations (Istio/Linkerd) for traffic routing, mTLS security, and canary deployments.CI/CD & AutomationDesigned end-to-end CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and ArgoCD, reducing release cycles from weeks to hours.Integrated automated testing and security scans (SonarQube, Trivy, Snyk) into pipelines, improving code quality and compliance.Developed custom Python automation tools to manage deployments, monitor system health, and streamline operational workflows.Implemented GitOps practices with ArgoCD AppSets, enabling multi-cluster and multi-tenant application management at scale.Monitoring & ObservabilityIntegrated Splunk dashboards and alerts for application and infrastructure monitoring, improving mean time to detect (MTTD).Built Prometheus exporters and dashboards for custom application metrics, enabling proactive incident detection.Implemented SLO/SLA monitoring and error budgets, aligning system reliability with business objectives.Established alerting and on-call automation with PagerDuty and Slack for rapid incident response.Performance & OptimizationOptimized CDN delivery with Akamai by tuning caching rules, offloading 30% of requests, and improving global load times.Reduced infrastructure costs by 25% through rightsizing, autoscaling, and eliminating underutilized resources.
