• Built hybrid cloud infrastructure on Azure for Operators, enabling 5G network slicing for telecom partners across multiple regions on customer-managed infrastructure. • Designed and owned CI/CD pipelines for zero-downtime deployments across multiple network slices, streamlining release cycles and reducing deployment errors. • Onboarded a new Azure Resource Provider end-to-end, managing ARM integration, lifecycle policies, and infrastructure provisioning. • Designed SSH FIDO key-based passwordless authentication for break-glass access to network devices, eliminating credential-sharing risk and hardening security posture across customer infrastructure. • Developed custom Kubernetes controllers (CRDs) to orchestrate interactions with on-premises network devices on customer infrastructure, extending cluster capabilities beyond cloud-native workloads. • Migrated existing telemetry pipeline from Fluentd exporter to OpenTelemetry (OTel) exporter, improving observability standardisation across the infrastructure. Gained hands-on experience with gNMI (gRPC Network Management Interface), an open-source streaming telemetry module used for real-time collection of network device metrics. • Utilized telemetry, logging, and infrastructure metrics to diagnose production issues, improve system reliability, and drive operational excellence across distributed environments. • Implemented AI-powered engineering skills and automation workflows to reduce manual testing effort, accelerate validation cycles, and improve developer productivity.
