Punyam A.

I have extensive experience in designing and implementing scalable, efficient DevOps solutions across multiple domains. My technical expertise includes: Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Automated infrastructure provisioning workflows with Terraform, integrated policy enforcement using Conftest, and developed drift-detection mechanisms to ensure system integrity and compliance. Kubernetes: Migrated services to Kubernetes, implemented IRSA, and developed custom workflows to detect and block unauthorized configuration changes between deployed applications and Helm repositories. CI/CD Pipelines: Optimized and automated CI/CD processes, significantly improving deployment efficiency and reliability using tools like GitHub Actions and Bitbucket. Kafka Integration: Engineered a dynamic solution for Kafka client-broker certificate management, reducing onboarding complexity and improving security by integrating with secret management systems. Monitoring and Incident Management: Improved monitoring systems by reducing false positives, enhancing alert quality, and actively participating in resolving critical P0/P1 incidents to maintain system uptime. Cloud Cost Optimization: Spearheaded initiatives to reduce AWS and Kubernetes costs by analyzing infrastructure utilization and implementing best practices. Over the years, I have worked in diverse sectors like fintech, hospitality tech, and e-commerce, delivering technical solutions that optimize performance and streamline workflows.
