About

Building infrastructure people can rely on

I'm a Cloud & DevOps Engineer based in Pune, focused on AWS core services, automation, and serverless architecture. My work spans EC2, S3, Lambda, IAM, VPC, RDS, API Gateway and DynamoDB — with Python and GitHub Actions tying the pipeline together.

I care about removing manual steps from deployment, keeping infrastructure secure by default, and writing systems that are easy for the next engineer to reason about. Currently interning as an AWS Cloud Engineer, automating cost controls and CI/CD for production workloads.

Experience

Where I've been building

AWS Cloud Engineer Intern

March 2026 — Present

Novacred Docboyz

  • Automated EC2 instance start/stop scheduling using AWS Lambda (Boto3), reducing non-production compute costs.
  • Designed and implemented CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, replacing manual deployment steps with fully automated build, test, and deploy workflows.
  • Managed EBS volume provisioning, resizing, and snapshot lifecycle via AWS Data Lifecycle Manager (DLM), improving storage reliability and disaster-recovery posture.
  • Monitored MySQL performance and resolved disk usage bottlenecks on EC2-hosted servers, maintaining consistent database uptime.
  • Configured IAM policies enforcing least-privilege access, strengthening the cloud security baseline.
  • Deployed and managed web applications on Amazon EC2 using Apache, Nginx, PM2, and Docker, ensuring reliable production deployments.
  • Configured Application Load Balancer (ALB), Route 53 DNS, and SSL certificates to securely expose applications over HTTPS.
  • Created and managed Amazon S3 buckets for application assets, backups, and static website hosting with secure access policies.
  • Implemented CloudWatch monitoring, alarms, and log analysis to proactively identify infrastructure and application issues.
  • Automated routine Linux administration tasks using Bash scripting, reducing manual operational effort and improving server maintenance.
  • Worked with Docker and Docker Compose to containerize applications and simplify deployment across development and production environments.
  • Collaborated with development teams to troubleshoot deployment issues, optimize application performance, and maintain high service availability.

Cloud Engineer

October 2024 — August 2025

Sheflying Tech

  • Provisioned and configured Amazon EC2 instances within a custom VPC (subnets, route tables, security groups), delivering secure and scalable compute environments.
  • Built event-driven AWS Lambda functions integrated with DynamoDB to automate routine data-processing tasks, reducing manual effort.
  • Implemented daily automated backup routines and administered Linux servers (user management, shell scripting, troubleshooting) to strengthen data protection and system uptime.
  • Configured IAM users, groups, roles, and policies following least-privilege principles for secure access management.
  • Managed Amazon S3 buckets with lifecycle policies, versioning, and access controls for secure object storage.
  • Configured Route 53 hosted zones and DNS records to route application traffic and improve domain availability.
  • Implemented CloudWatch metrics, dashboards, and alarms for infrastructure monitoring and operational visibility.
  • Supported application deployments on Linux servers using Apache, Nginx, Git, and SSH while troubleshooting deployment issues.
  • Created Bash scripts to automate routine server maintenance, log cleanup, and backup verification tasks.
  • Worked closely with development teams to resolve infrastructure issues and ensure smooth application releases.

How this site runs

This portfolio is its own architecture diagram

The page you're reading is served straight from an S3 bucket. The contact form below doesn't call a third-party form service — it calls a real serverless pipeline built on API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB, governed entirely by IAM roles.

IAM Role

Least-privilege execution

No AWS credentials ever exist in the frontend code — every step above is authorized through a scoped IAM execution role attached to the Lambda function.

Projects

ONDC Insurance API — Deployment & Infra

Deployed a Node.js (Express) backend on EC2 behind an Application Load Balancer with target groups, health checks, and Route 53 alias records, then automated releases with a GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline.
