ABOUT

One person with passion is better than forty people merely interested. My passion for web development led me to start my own small web development firm where I learned firsthand about client requirement gathering, designing clean user interfaces and responsive design, application deployment and fulfilling client requirements as well as brainstorming with team for unique ideas. I have worked on latest web technologies ranging from HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, TypeScript, ES6, jQuery, Ajax, Bootstrap and Angular 2+, High Charts, D3.js, Webpack, GIT, AWS, BitBucket, Jira, Asana.

In addition to working in web development, I decided to expand my horizons and develop my expertise further in the world of Cloud computing and DevOps, when presented with the opportunity. I have worked with Chef, Rundeck, Docker, Kubernetes, Azure, Terrform scripts, Splunk, Dynatrace, Zabbix, VisualCron, Ec2 instance, CloudWatch Monitoring, AWS and am familiar with Bash/Shell Scripting.

I believe that my experience of working in a small company, as well as large multinational companies, gives me a unique edge on the understanding of the way DevOps is handled in different situations. I am looking for opportunities to prove that I am a valuable asset and a team player.
