About Sanchit Bansal

Senior Systems Development Engineer | 15+ Years Architecting Cloud Infrastructure at ScaleI architect and scale high-performance cloud services that power millions of hosts globally. Currently at Amazon, I\'ve spent the last 15+ years bridging the gap between infrastructure and software development—wearing both SDE and SysDE hats to ensure complex systems are built on resilient, production-hardened foundations.My journey started in DevOps over a decade ago, where I cut my teeth managing Chef infrastructure for client nodes and building automation pipelines with Jenkins, Terraform, Docker, and the ELK stack. I developed Infrastructure as Code solutions that transformed how teams provisioned environments, migrated workloads from physical/VM to cloud, and implemented zero-touch deployment workflows.At Amazon, I\'ve taken this foundation to the next level:1. Engineered a global automated validation framework that reduced manual operational time by 83%(from 1 hour to 10 minutes) while expanding monitoring coverage by 456% across 50+ regions2. Led the strategic deprecation of 59 legacy components from a legacy configuration system serving 5M+ hosts—with zero production downtime3. Directed security reviews and SSL/TLS migrations for hosts, implementing threat modeling and certificate management at scale.4. Designed centralized logging and analytics solutions that cut troubleshooting time from 6 hours to minutes5. Before Amazon, I spent 7+ years at Relevance Lab and Tech Mahindra leading DevOps transformations—architecting multi-cloud automation across AWS, Azure, and GCP; building self-healing infrastructure with Stackstorm and Sensu; and creating reporting dashboards using Kafka and Elasticsearch that managed logs for 30K+ nodes.I\'m passionate about operational transformation, legacy system modernization, and building teams. I\'ve mentored engineers across multiple organizations, and authored documentation that\'s been adopted organization-wide.Technical toolkit: Python, Ruby, Shell, AWS (Certified), Chef, Jenkins, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, ELK Stack, Kafka, CloudWatch, Ansible, and Infrastructure as Code patterns.Always interested in connecting with fellow engineers tackling infrastructure challenges at scale.
