    Hyderabad

    Project Lead — DevOps & Platform

    • Sole owner of infrastructure, deployments and production operations for a self-hosted Frappe/ERPNext CRM on Hetzner Cloud with Docker Compose.
    • Built an isolated speech-to-text service (FastAPI + Faster-Whisper, Redis-backed async queues) with cross-browser media capture.
    • Designed deal-lifecycle automation that auto-provisions customers, projects and tasks, with idempotency guards.
    • Led the Zoho Bigin migration: entity mapping, stage-history reconstruction, integrity validation. Mentor junior engineers.
    • Packaged the whole stack as repeatable infrastructure: Docker-based ERPNext, a scripted installer for the transcription service run under systemd, and a one-command install path for fresh benches.
    • Built add-only release tooling for live production sites: backup first, install or upgrade-in-place, idempotent re-runnable migrations, and a diagnostic log line on every migrate. Never touches other apps’ data.
    • Run multiple client ERPNext/Frappe app deployments (manufacturing, healthcare, facility management and consultancy) from one platform practice, with pre-commit linting (ruff, eslint, prettier) on every app.
    • Integrated Meta Lead Ads webhooks into the CRM, with patched and rebuilt frontend assets kept as versioned patch files.
    • Keep a public daily production-operations log (GitHub Pages, searchable by day and workstream) so every infra change and incident is traceable.

    • Moved secrets to AWS Secrets Manager and Kubernetes secrets: 25% fewer audit findings. Prometheus + Grafana: 25% lower MTTR.

Lorvenk Technologies

Shift-left security pipeline

Problem
Vulnerabilities were found late, after release candidates were already built.
What I did
Added SAST, SCA, container image scanning and DAST stages as reusable GitHub Actions workflows and Jenkins shared libraries.
Result
40% fewer production release failures.
  • GitHub Actions
  • Jenkins
  • SAST
  • SCA
  • DAST
  • Docker

Result
25% fewer audit findings.
  • AWS Secrets Manager
  • Kubernetes
  • IAM
  • Docker

Lorvenk Technologies

Multi-environment EKS platform

Problem
Need consistent, auditable, highly available environments from Dev to Prod.
What I did
Built EKS clusters for Dev, QA, Stage and Prod with RBAC, Network Policies, Helm and HPA; provisioned with Terraform and Ansible; observability with Prometheus and Grafana.
Result
4 environments, 25% lower MTTR.
  • EKS
  • Terraform
  • Ansible
  • Helm
  • Prometheus

DevSecOps Starter Kit

Problem
Show how DevOps and security combine end to end, for teams adopting DevSecOps.
What I did
Three-tier app on Vagrant and Docker, Kubernetes workloads, Terraform on AWS (EC2, S3, IAM), GitHub Actions CI/CD.
Result
Public reference architecture.
  • Terraform
  • AWS
  • Kubernetes
  • GitHub Actions
  • Docker

CI to Jenkins via presigned S3

Problem
Hand artifacts from CI to CD without long-lived credentials or shared storage access.
What I did
GitHub Actions builds a Maven WAR, uploads to S3, creates a short-lived presigned URL, and triggers Jenkins to deploy to Tomcat with a smoke check.
Result
Auditable, least-privilege hand-off.
  • GitHub Actions
  • S3
  • Jenkins
  • Tomcat
  • Maven
