About Me

I am a Sr. Infrastructure Developer at Cognizant, working as a Deployment Engineer. My role revolves around DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure automation. With hands-on experience in cloud platforms (Azure & GCP), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible), I bring expertise in deploying, maintaining, and optimizing applications in production.
