Lead DevSecOps initiatives, integrating security, compliance, and GitOps practices into enterprise CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, JFrog Artifactory, ArgoCD, and Argo Workflows across Azure cloud environments. Architect and manage cloud infrastructure using Terraform (IaC), Azure Landing Zones, networking (VNets, NSGs, Hub-Spoke, Private Endpoints, UDRs), Entra ID, Managed/Workload Identity, and AKS to deliver secure, scalable, highly available platforms. Administer AKS/Kubernetes clusters, implementing RBAC, OIDC, Key Vault integration, and Workload Identity to secure application delivery. Implement automated security, governance, and monitoring through Kyverno, Cilium Kubernetes security policies, Azure Monitor, Prometheus, and Grafana, ensuring vulnerability detection, policy enforcement, and operational visibility. Apply DevSecOps scanning and compliance tooling (SonarQube, Trivy, Checkov, OWASP) to enforce code quality, container security, and IaC compliance across the CI/CD pipeline. Collaborate with development, security, and operations teams to embed secure SDLC practices and cloud security best practices for enterprise applications. Enhance deployment reliability and operational efficiency through infrastructure automation, GitOps, CI/CD optimization, and mentoring of engineering teams on modern DevOps and cloud-native best practices.

Automated infrastructure provisioning and configuration management using Terraform and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices. Built and maintained CI/CD pipelines for automated builds, testing, and deployment workflows, improving release consistency and speed. Managed Azure infrastructure including AKS, networking, Landing Zones, Entra ID, Managed Identity, and Workload Identity, ensuring secure and highly available environments. Ensured high availability, scalability, and security compliance of Azure cloud infrastructure across environments.

Introduced CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Git-based workflows for enterprise telecom network management applications, automating build, test, and deployment processes. Containerized legacy Angular/Node.js applications with Docker, standardizing environments and reducing deployment- related defects. Collaborated with infrastructure and QA teams to streamline release cycles and establish repeatable deployment practices, forming the foundation for a full transition into dedicated DevOps engineering.
