Who I am

16+ years of IT experience spanning Cloud Security, Fintech, Ecommerce, Social Media, Telecom, and Banking. I specialize in designing and operating large-scale, highly reliable infrastructure across multicloud, HPC, and hybrid environments.

Hands-on with AWS, GCP, NVIDIA DGX HPC platforms, Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, Docker, and modern observability stacks. I bring a proven track record of cost optimization, compliance, and engineering leadership at companies like Intel, Flipkart/Cleartrip, Morgan Stanley, and Cisco.

Currently based in Abu Dhabi, UAE — leading cloud platform engineering at Avrioc Technologies across payments, communications, and social networking products.
