Sai N.

My journey into DevOps started with a backend engineering role, but I quickly found myself drawn to the infrastructure side automating deployments, optimising systems, and solving the invisible problems that make engineering teams thrive. What began as curiosity became a full-blown career path when I took the lead on redesigning our CI/CD pipelines and AWS infrastructure at Bodo.ai, where I worked for 3 years. One of my proudest accomplishments was preparing our cloud architecture for SOC 2 compliance, a massive responsibility that involved IAM hardening, secret management, audit logging, and building secure Terraform modules to handle everything from EKS and RDS to CloudFront and PrivateLink. I also collaborated with enterprise clients like Apple, leading the integration of our backend platform with AWS Marketplace. something few DevOps engineers get to own end to end. What makes me thrive in DevOps is the blend of problem-solving, automation, and architecture. I enjoy taking ambiguous infrastructure challenges like cutting deployment times in half, or migrating PHP apps to GCP serverless and turning them into clean, scalable, well-documented solutions. I’ve worked across AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub Actions, Celery/RabbitMQ, and more, with a focus on performance, cost-efficiency, and reliability. But more than tools, I bring a builder’s mindset. I think like a developer, operate like an SRE, and communicate like a team lead. Whether it’s onboarding a new service, refining observability, or guiding a startup from MVP to production-ready, I show up with clarity, speed, and ownership. If you're looking for someone who can not only keep your systems alive but make them thrive I’d love to be part of your story.
