About Arnav Kumar

I\'m a Software Engineer with 6 years of experience building, securing, and scaling cloud infrastructure. My work revolves around simplifying complex systems, whether it\'s debugging Kubernetes clusters, putting out Linux fires, automating AWS environments, building security tooling and compliance workflows, or improving developer tooling. I\'m passionate about building robust platforms that let engineering teams focus on what they do best.I\'ve had the privilege of working across diverse environments, from early-stage companies and unicorn startups to publicly listed enterprises where I\'ve helped build custom observability stacks, metrics-based autoscalers, CI/CD pipelines, fleet-wide security patching for running production environments, and optimized infrastructure to save costs. This breadth of experience has given me a deep understanding of cloud infrastructure at every scale. Problem solving is what keeps me motivated, and I\'ve learned how to balance agility with scale to deliver solutions while keeping all the stakeholders happy.Outside of work, I\'m experimenting with music and photography, gaming, or planning my next adventure.If you\'re looking for someone to help solve tough infrastructure problems or just want to connect, feel free to reach out!My Blogging Site: https://arnavk.space/
