Ashwin Somnath
I am a DevOps Engineer with over 7 years of experience optimizing software delivery and infrastructure management. Specializing in secure, scalable, and cloud-native architectures, I leverage Kubernetes, containerization, cloud platforms, and configuration management systems to drive efficiency and resilience. I have a proven track record of enhancing system reliability, reducing downtime, and accelerating development velocity by implementing automated deployments, infrastructure as code (IaC), and scalable self-healing infrastructures. With a strong focus on observability, proactive monitoring, and real-time alerting, I ensure high availability and rapid issue resolution. My expertise in infrastructure automation, security hardening, and compliance enforcement enables seamless software delivery while mitigating risks. A collaborative problem-solver, I excel in cross-functional teamwork, driving continuous operational improvements and fostering a culture of efficiency, security, and innovation in high-performance environments.
