DevOps Engineer @ Amdocs | DevSecOps | Cloud | AWS | Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology

About

I'm a DevOps Engineer with 2.5+ years of experience automating CI/CD, deployments and environment operations for a 500+ environment telecom estate across on-prem and AWS. At Amdocs, I built and own a central Jenkins platform with 10+ production jobs, used by 100+ people across dev, test, UAT and production. A few results I'm proud of: - Cut hotfix deployment from ~4 hours of manual work to ~30 minutes with a one-click pipeline - Automated NAS cleanup that reclaims ~60 GB a month, after recurring disk-full incidents - Automated license, password and SSL certificate renewals, turning near-daily expiry issues into rare ones - Performed an Amazon EKS cluster upgrade Technology stack: Linux | Jenkins | AWS | Docker | Kubernetes | Git | Python | Shell Scripting | Helm | Argo CD | Maven | SonarQube | Azure Outside work, I build to learn: a Flask/MySQL app on Kubernetes (kubeadm to EKS) and a GitOps pipeline with Jenkins, SonarQube and ArgoCD. I enjoy work where reliability, automation and developer experience meet, and I'm always keen to learn from engineers solving problems at scale. Let's connect: ikshit2809@gmail.com
