Managed and supported 3,500+ VMs across Azure and AWS environments, serving as an L2 escalation engineer for infrastructure incidents — triaging, diagnosing, and resolving OS, network, storage, and performance issues within defined SLAs. Architected and delivered a Golden Image build pipeline using Packer integrated with Azure DevOps CI/CD, producing hardened, production-ready images for Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, and RHEL 9 — with all required security agents (Qualys, Splunk, Bindplane) and CIS Level 2 hardening (GPO policies, registry configurations, and RHEL hardening baselines) pre-baked into every image. Administered Windows Server environments including OS-level troubleshooting, Group Policy configuration, registry management, patch deployment, and agent lifecycle management across production fleets. Administered Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL 8/9) and Linux systems — performing yum/dnf-based patch management, resolving agent and file system issues, managing systemd services, and troubleshooting SELinux-related access and configuration problems during image builds and live environments. Provisioned and managed Azure IaaS resources (VMs, VNets, subnets, NSGs, Managed Disks, Storage Accounts, Load Balancers), ensuring high availability, security, and performance across production environments. Developed and maintained Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, integrated with Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines — enabling consistent, repeatable, and auditable infrastructure provisioning across environments. Automated operational and remediation workflows using PowerShell and Python, reducing mean-time-to resolve (MTTR) and eliminating manual intervention for recurring tasks. Built reusable troubleshooting runbooks, RCA documents, and knowledge base articles, significantly reducing recurring incident rates across the team.
