Experience

DevOps Engineer - eSewa

2023 - Present
  • Reduced deployment time by implementing robust CI/ CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitLab CI, accelerating delivery for microservices built in Java, Laravel, Python, and JavaScript frameworks. Integrated Trivy, SonarQube, and OWASP Dependency-Check to automate security scans, ensuring vulnerability-free deployments.
  • Implemented version control best practices using Git, establishing effective branching strategies (Git Flow) to streamline collaboration and code integration.
  • Enabled high application uptime by containerizing services with Docker and deploying on fault-tolerant Kubernetes clusters (AWS EKS and on-prem), including rolling updates with minimizing downtime.
  • Initialized and scaled Kubernetes infrastructure supporting 30+ containerized workloads by implementing node group management and event-driven autoscaling using KEDA, ensuring efficient resource utilization and responsiveness during peak loads.
  • Developed Jenkins pipeline to automate APK build and download, significantly reducing mobile app release time.
  • Applied Kafka clusters, integrating Redpanda for enhanced GUI-based monitoring and observability.
  • Lowered incident resolution time by deploying centralized logging with the ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Filebeat, Logstash, Metricbeat, Heartbeat, Kibana) and implementing real-time API health checks.
  • Deployed and configured Grafana, Loki, and Promtail to monitor and analyze Kubernetes logs, improving operational visibility and incident response.
  • Enforced and maintained AWS EC2 instances to host production workloads, integrating with Application Load Balancer (ALB) for traffic distribution, health checks, and high availability.
  • Decreased configuration drift and improved deployment consistency by automating non-containerized app deployment using Ansible across multiple environments.
  • Increased infrastructure deployment reliability using Terraform for infrastructure as code, minimizing errors and environment inconsistencies.
