Key Strengths

  • Owned production IBM Power/AIX footprint (2 frames, 20+ LPARs) supporting critical middleware and database workloads
  • End-to-end troubleshooting and live remediation using HMC/DLPAR (resolved peak CPU constraint by adding processor resources without reboot)
  • Resolved storage outage by diagnosing VIOS virtual adapter mapping/SAN access issues and restoring service with minimal downtime
  • Planned and executed PowerHA failover testing (validated cluster/resource health and performed controlled resource group moves)
  • Led AIX 7.x migration/cutover with runbook, cross-team coordination, and multiple dry runs; handled post-cutover stabilization issues
  • Built and maintained secure GitHub Actions CI/CD deploying containerized apps to Kubernetes; diagnosed and fixed production pipeline failure
  • Implemented Terraform IaC for AWS (VPC/IAM/EKS/RDS) with modular design, remote state, PR-based promotion, and drift monitoring
