Reliability is a feature

I'm an SRE & DevOps Engineer with 5+ years turning complex cloud infrastructure into dependable, cost-efficient systems. Currently an Associate Consultant at GlobalLogic (formerly Exabeam), I've driven platform modernization across CI/CD, observability, and Kubernetes at enterprise scale.

I specialize in reducing toil through infrastructure-as-code, building proactive observability stacks, and enabling engineering teams to deploy with confidence. My background spans cloud-native robotics infrastructure, RBAC compliance, and disaster recovery automation.
