Professional Summary

DevOps Engineer with 3+ years of experience in designing, automating, and operating AWS cloud infrastructure and CI/CD platforms. Strong hands-on experience in AWS (EC2, IAM, VPC, S3, EKS, ECR, ECS, ALB, CloudWatch), Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins. Skilled in Infrastructure as Code, container orchestration, monitoring, and security best practices.

What I Work With

Docker

Package apps so they run the same everywhere.

Kubernetes

Run and scale containers automatically.

Jenkins / GitHub Actions

Automate build, test, and deploy.

Terraform

Create cloud infrastructure using code.

AWS

Host and scale applications in the cloud.

How a DevOps Pipeline Works

When a developer pushes code to Git, a pipeline builds the app, creates a Docker image, deploys it to Kubernetes, and monitors it automatically.

My Sample DevOps Project

Automated CI/CD for a Web App

  • Code stored in GitHub.
  • Jenkins builds and tests the app.
  • Docker creates the image.
  • Kubernetes deploys with zero downtime.
  • Prometheus and Grafana monitor the app.

DevOps Concepts in Simple Words

CI

Automatically testing code after every change.

CD

Automatically deploying tested code.

Container

A lightweight box that contains the app and dependencies.

IaC

Creating servers using code instead of clicking.

Rolling Update

Update the app without downtime.

Why DevOps?

DevOps helps teams release software faster, safer, and with fewer failures by automating repetitive tasks and improving collaboration.
