Über Nishanta
I am a Senior Cloud DevOps & Platform Engineer with 12+ years of experience helping companies design, build & run modern cloud platforms. I cover the full lifecycle of infrastructure, from planning & architecture to automation, deployment, monitoring & security.
My main expertise is in Google Cloud Platform, AWS & Azure, where I have built multi-region, production-grade systems using Kubernetes, Docker & Terraform. I have delivered cloud migrations with secured landing zones, automated CI/CD pipelines & container platforms that cut deployment times, improve reliability & lower costs.
I have hands-on experience with GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD & Jenkins, creating pipelines that support daily releases & enable teams to move faster. I also design observability stacks with Prometheus, Grafana, Loki/ELK & OpenTelemetry, giving teams visibility & reducing incident response time.
Security & compliance are part of all my projects. I integrate tools like Vault, Kyverno & Trivy to protect secrets, enforce policies & reduce vulnerabilities. I am comfortable in regulated environments (finance, health, energy) & experienced with GDPR, HIPAA & compliance frameworks.
My background spans fintech, IoT, tourism, education, consulting, healthcare, manufacturing & energy. I have supported digital asset platforms, anti-money laundering systems for banks, IoT services for industrial clients & ERP and MES migrations.
Alongside infrastructure, I bring programming & scripting skills in Python, Go, Ruby & Bash. I use these to automate tasks, debug issues & optimize performance.
Clients value my ability to collaborate with developers, operations & security teams. I run post-mortems, perform root cause analysis & design improvements that make systems stronger over time.
If you need someone to own your cloud infrastructure, build secure & reliable pipelines, or improve observability & automation, I deliver solutions that scale with your business & support long-term growth.
