Architected Kubernetes/Docker microservices infrastructure across multi-node clusters, handling 100K+ requests/sec and sustaining 99.95% uptime during peak sales events. Defined SLOs/SLIs and built Python-based AIOps automation with LLM-driven anomaly detection, cutting operational toil by 25% and saving 10+ engineering hours weekly. Ran chaos engineering and DR simulations to stress-test Istio service mesh resilience, cutting unplanned incidents by 20%; also handled capacity planning and auto-scaling that brought cloud costs down 15%. Automated alert provisioning and event-readiness checks using Python scripting for high-traffic annual events (Black Friday, Cyber Monday). Mentored 3 junior engineers and partnered with business stakeholders in Agile/Scrum cadence, applying the AI-Driven Operations Automation skill to cut ticket resolution time by 55%.
