Hire Me / ConsultingRemote-first, senior-level DevOps expertise — from strategy to execution. Here's what global companies and teams get when they work with me:
CI/CD pipelines that cut release cycles from days to minutes — using GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, Jenkins, and GitLab CI.
Right-sizing, spot instances, reserved capacity, and multi-cloud strategy — clients typically see 25–40% reduction in cloud spend.
DevSecOps pipelines with SAST/DAST, secrets management, and compliance automation for ISO 27001, GDPR, and PCI DSS.
Hands-on DevOps training for engineering teams and universities — Kubernetes, cloud platforms, CI/CD, and security practices.
Experienced working across US, EU, and Asia-Pacific time zones. Asynchronous-friendly with clear documentation and handoffs.
Infrastructure strategy, platform engineering roadmaps, and vendor selection — bridging technical depth with business impact.
I am an Engineering & DevOps Leader with over 15 years of experience guiding startups and enterprises through technology transformation. My career has taken me from customer support and QA into DevOps, SRE, and eventually leadership, giving me a complete view of how engineering, operations, and business strategy come together.
In recent years I have focused on building and mentoring high-performing teams, driving cloud adoption at scale, and aligning infrastructure strategy with organizational growth. As Director of Infrastructure & DevOps at Aigent, I led global teams, established scalable CI/CD systems, optimized budgets, and ensured security and compliance for enterprise clients.
Alongside industry work, I have been active as a community builder and educator, leading DevOps Pune meetups with 3,000+ engineers and serving as a visiting lecturer at MITWPU and IMCC Pune. This balance of technical depth, leadership experience, and community engagement enables me to bridge strategy and execution — helping organizations scale reliably, securely, and cost-effectively.
