Hi, I'm Naveen kumar.

A
Self-driven, proactive, and passionate DevOps engineer with a curious mind, dedicated to optimizing infrastructure, automating workflows, and solving complex real-world challenges in system reliability and scalability.

About

I am an Experienced DevOps Engineer with over 5 years of expertise in managing and optimizing cloud and on-premises infrastructures. Always strive to bring 100% to the work I do. Skilled in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with tools like Terraform and proficient in automating workflows using Ansible. Adept at containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, I have a track record of implementing efficient CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitLab. My strong knowledge of monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK enables me to ensure system reliability, swiftly troubleshoot issues, and drive operational excellence.

  • Cloud: AWS(EC2, EBS, VPC, S3, IAM, Cloud Watch, CloudFront, Elastic Load Balancer, Auto Scaling, route 53, RDS, DynamoDB, Code Pipeline, Cloud Formation, Lambda function)
  • Databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB
  • CI/CD Pipeline: Git, Jenkins
  • Configuration Management: Ansible, Salt-stack
  • Containerization: Docker, Docker-Compose, Kubernetes
  • Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana, Alert-Manager, Node-Exporter, Collectd
  • Scripting Language: Python, Bash Shell-Scripting
  • Networking: Firewall Rules,Routing,TCP/IP SSH Protocol,OpenVPN

Looking for an opportunity to work in a challenging position combining my skills in Devops Engineering, which provides professional development, interesting experiences and personal growth.
