Alex Chen - DevOps Engineer

Hi, I'm Ashish Sharma — DevOps Engineer

I automate, deploy, and scale cloud infrastructure.

Specializing in AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Jenkins, CI/CD pipelines, Ansible, and comprehensive monitoring solutions. Building robust, scalable systems that power modern applications.

About Me

I'm a passionate DevOps Engineer with 3.5+ years of experience building and maintaining cloud infrastructure at scale. My journey began with system administration and evolved into a deep expertise in automation, containerization, and cloud-native technologies.

I believe in an automation-first mindset where infrastructure is code, deployments are continuous, and monitoring is proactive. I thrive in building CI/CD pipelines that enable teams to ship faster while maintaining reliability and security. My goal is to bridge the gap between development and operations, creating seamless workflows that empower innovation.

When I'm not optimizing Kubernetes clusters or writing Terraform modules, you'll find me contributing to open-source projects, writing technical blogs, or exploring the latest in cloud technologies.
