WORK EXPERIENCES

2+ years hands-on in DevOps/Platform/SRE operating production workloads on AWS and Kubernetes (EKS).
Proven delivery of Helm charts (templating, values, hooks) and Argo CD GitOps (app/app-of-apps, sync policies, RBAC).
Jenkins pipeline-as-code (Jenkinsfile, artifact/versioning, shared libraries; quality gates).
Secret Management: HashiCorp Vault: policies, KV/dynamic secrets, agents/injectors, CI/CD & app integration; regular secret rotation.
Docker: multi-stage builds, image hardening, SBOM & scanning (e.g., Trivy/Grype); small, reproducible images.
IaC: Terraform or CloudFormation (modules, workspaces, guarded plan/apply, code reviews).
Build tooling: integrate and cache maven/sbt/gradle (backend) and npm/yarn (frontend) in CI; artifact storage and provenance.
Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, Opensearch, ELK stacks
Security best practice: least-privilege IAM, dependency pinning, IaC linting/scanning, image scanning in the pipeline, signed artifacts.
Automation & scripting: strong Bash plus Python or Go; comfortable with Linux internals and networking basics (VPC, CIDR, SGs, IRSA).
Operations mindset: participates in on-call, leads blameless postmortems, and participate in measurable reliability/cost improvements.
Collaboration: clear communication with Dev/QA/SecOps/Cloud and collaboration across projects.
