Who I Am

I'm a Senior DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure Engineer based in Kottayam, Kerala, India — passionate about building infrastructure that is reliable, observable, and cost-efficient.

Currently at Allianz Technology, I own enterprise Kubernetes (EKS) cluster operations, CI/CD modernisation, and cloud security posture across multi-account AWS environments. My background in Electrical & Electronics Engineering gives me an edge in AWS IoT Core and real-time embedded cloud systems — a rare bridge between hardware intuition and cloud scale.

Beyond infrastructure, I build AI-powered DevOps tools — from Terraform cost analysers using Amazon Bedrock to GitHub Actions workflows that auto-generate PR descriptions via Lambda and AI.
