Led migration of 30+ CI/CD pipelines from Jenkins to Azure DevOps, improving maintainability and standardizing deployment workflows & reduced pipeline execution time by 75% (6 hours → 1.5 hours) through optimized pipeline stages, parallel jobs, and improved agent utilization.  Integrated automated UI testing using Playwright, increasing build reliability and release confidence.

Designed and implemented a self-service infrastructure deployment platform enabling developers to provision cloud resources securely without operational dependencies.  Automated provisioning workflows using Azure Functions and PowerShell, exposing secure APIs via Azure API Management with RBAC, auditing, and governance controls.  Integrated CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps with approval gates, rollback mechanisms, and compliance validation.

Modernized a legacy logistics platform by migrating monolithic applications to a microservices architecture on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).  Implemented autoscaling, secure networking, and container orchestration, significantly improving platform scalability and resilience.  Established full-stack observability using Dynatrace and Azure Monitor, enabling proactive monitoring and faster incident resolution.

Led cloud adoption initiatives by automating infrastructure provisioning and deployment workflows using Infrastructure as Code.  Implemented secure API integrations with Azure API Management and Azure Key Vault for centralized secret management.  Integrated security scanning, monitoring alerts, and automated notifications to improve issue detection and response times.
