About

Backend/cloud engineer with deep Azure and distributed-systems experience: owned an end-to-end Python multi-orchestrator config generator (Contrail) spanning OpenStack/vCenter/OpenShift/Kubernetes via a translation-layer approach. Built GitOps-style ARM-template infrastructure and CI/CD with automated testing, including a zero-downtime Databricks-to-Synapse migration using parallel production validation. Worked on Microsoft Azure Identity gateway (reverse proxy for auth) and executed ring-based deployments for major platform migration.

Key Strengths

• End-to-end ownership of Python backend system design and implementation
• Designed a translation-layer architecture enabling format-independent multi-orchestrator config generation
• Pragmatic tradeoff decisions to improve usability (single translation file per orchestrator vs per input)
• Built Azure CI/CD with automated testing and executed zero-downtime Databricks-to-Synapse migration via parallel production runs
• Planned and executed large-scale ring-based deployments with bake periods for safe infrastructure migration
• Designed real-time event-driven billing middleware and ensured correctness by handling duplicates/out-of-order events with monotonic event IDs
• Applied GitOps with ARM-template-based declarative infrastructure and PR-driven incremental deployments
