My Education & Experience

Work Experience

Lead DevOps Engineer

Health Payment Systems (July 2023 - Continue)

As a key member of the Infrastructure Team, responsible for provisioning, maintaining, and monitoring critical infrastructure to ensure seamless operations across Health Payment Systems (HPS). I provide technical support and strategic guidance to all teams, enabling operational efficiency and system reliability.

DevOps Engineer III - Infrastructure

AmeriSave Mortgage

As a Sr. DevOps Engineer at AmeriSave Mortgage, I successfully automated infrastructure provisioning using Terraform-based IaC, reducing manual efforts by 40% and ensuring consistency across environments. I played a key role in cloud migration strategy, collaborating with the CIO and leadership to plan and execute Azure migration, optimizing cost, security, and performance. Additionally, I enhanced containerization and orchestration by implementing OpenShift and Kubernetes, enabling scalable and secure deployments. To improve monitoring and incident response, I integrated Datadog for real-time observability, reducing incident response time by 30% through proactive monitoring. Furthermore, I optimized CI/CD pipelines by developing automated deployment workflows with ArgoCD, accelerating releases while ensuring security and compliance across all environments.

DevOps Engineer

Harris Teeter - Arlington, VA (August, 2017 to April, 2020)

As a DevOps Engineer at Harris Teeter, I was a member of the Cost and Margin Team, supporting Data Engineers by optimizing CI/CD pipelines for efficient deployment and data processing. I automated data workflows using Azure Data Factory (ADF) and Databricks, ensuring seamless data transformations and integrations. To meet strict SLAs, I developed an automated process for delivering live data to vendors, enhancing reliability and operational efficiency. Additionally, I mapped and optimized resources in Service Principal Management (SPM) to enforce best practices and strengthen security. My contributions significantly improved cost efficiency, data reliability, and automation, driving overall business success.

QA Automation Engineer

Federal Home Loan Bank (March, 2013 to July 2017)

As a QA Automation Engineer, I played a integral role in ensuring software quality and performance by implementing automated testing frameworks using Selenium and RFT while also conducting manual testing for comprehensive coverage. I was responsible for executing smoke and regression testing, identifying critical defects early in the development cycle. Additionally, I utilized Locust for load testing, ensuring system stability under high-traffic conditions. Working closely with DevOps and Cloud Engineers, I gained hands-on experience in CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and automation, which sparked my interest in transitioning to Cloud and DevOps Engineering. This experience laid the foundation for my expertise in infrastructure automation, deployment strategies, and cloud-based solutions.
