About Vishal Kumar

Senior SRE with 13+ years of experience architecting hyper-scale infrastructure for NVIDIA, Oracle, and IBM.Currently, I operate at the intersection of Kubernetes, DevOps, and Artificial Intelligence. As a Senior SRE for NVIDIA’s Blossom Platform, I don’t just maintain systems; I evolve them. My recent focus has been pioneering AI-Driven Operations, designing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that allow LLM agents to debug live Jenkins and Kubernetes incidents—bridging the gap between complex infrastructure and natural language.What I bring to the table: Complex Orchestration: extensive experience managing heterogeneous Kubernetes clusters (Linux, Windows v1.31, Tegra/Arm) and GPU passthrough workloads. Deep Automation: Architecting HA Jenkins platforms and reducing Disaster Recovery (DR) RTO by 70% via Python-based deduplication engines. Enterprise Scale: A career built on managing mission-critical cloud infrastructure at Oracle (OCI) and IBM.I am passionate about removing \"toil\" through intelligent automation and building platforms that are as resilient as they are scalable.
