-Assisted in the migration of legacy applications from TFVC to Git, contributing to improved version control and traceability. - Initiated POC for .yaml based pipelines for build pipelines so that the Application team will have lesser pipelines and they can use it for multiple branches. - Worked on a POC to Containerize the applications using docker, to save the cost of servers. - Implemented .yaml based pipelines for applications to reduce DevOps team’s effort on duplicating pipelines for maintenance branches. - Worked closely with senior engineers to automate deployment processes, resulting in a 25% reduction in deployment errors. - Debugged issues and queries related to DevOps activities. - Collaborated with team mates to create a Known Error Database so that whenever the team faces any error/warning during Smoke Test, it can be identified and fixed ASAP. - Created a Wiki page for our team, so that any team member can refer to it and do their assigned work independently. - Gave multiple feedbacks to the pipeline team to make our team’s work more efficient by creating end to end pipelines for environment refresh. - Apart from the day to day activities I was responsible for Knowledge Transfer to new joiners for our team.

About

As a Software Engineer at LTIMindtree, I lead the successful migration from TFVC to Git for multiple legacy projects, enabling better code collaboration, version control, and branch management. I also design and implement CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, automating build, test, and deployment processes, resulting in a 30% reduction in release cycle time. I have a Bachelor of Technology in Information Technology from Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology, where I learned the importance of automation in modern day projects. I have also completed multiple certifications in Google Kubernetes Engine, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon EKS, demonstrating my passion and proficiency in DevOps and cloud technologies. I thrive in solving problems in creative ways and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality solutions.
