SRE & Infrastructure

  • Spearheaded in-house Kubernetes operators for CockroachDB using Go and kubebuilder, building 8 controllers for authentication, backup restoration, schema migrations, connection pooling, and multi-region data synchronization.
  • Executed zero-downtime production database migrations using ArgoCD and in-house K8s operator, coordinating schema changes while maintaining 99.9%+ availability and data integrity.
  • Engineered Kubernetes operator conversion webhook to upgrade 100+ legacy custom resources for 60+ microservices, eliminating manual effort and ensuring seamless API upgrades.
  • Transformed infrastructure provisioning from Helm to Jsonnet for 10+ microservices across all environments, improving configurability and eliminating YAML-based overlay sprawl.
  • Automated TLS certificate and secrets management with cert-manager, HashiCorp Vault, and external-secrets, replacing manual credential rotation across all environments.
  • Right-sized Kubernetes replicas across 60+ services using Prometheus and Grafana, achieving $50K/month ($600K annualized) in savings and defining capacity for GCP to on-premises migration.
  • Built database monitoring system using Prometheus and Grafana; migrated legacy alerting infrastructure to Alertmanager, reducing mean time to detection by 40% across production clusters.
  • Maintained 99.9%+ uptime SLO for starlink.com serving millions of users through on-call rotation, triaging and resolving critical incidents including data replication failures and failovers.
  • Standardized CI test infrastructure across 700+ Playwright tests, identifying and triaging flaky tests to owners, driving 60% reduction in flaky tests and faster deployment cycle.
