I am a Cloud Solutions Architect and DevSecOps Engineer specializing in enterprise-grade Microsoft Azure platforms, Zero-Trust Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), and cutting-edge Agentic AI systems (Model Context Protocol, RAG, and autonomous SRE operations).
Combining an analytical foundation in Computer Applications & Mathematics (M.Sc Computer Science) with hands-on enterprise cloud architecture and infrastructure engineering, I engineer production platforms designed for high resilience, verifiable security compliance, and automated self-healing operations:
- βοΈ Cloud Architecture & CAF Governance: Architecting enterprise Hub-and-Spoke topologies, micro-segmented Virtual Networks, Route Tables with forced egress, Azure Firewall Premium, and production AKS clusters.
- π‘οΈ Shift-Left DevSecOps & Supply Chain: Authoring 4-stage automated pipelines in Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions with secretless OIDC authentication, static code analysis (Checkov, tfsec, TFLint), secret scanning (Gitleaks, TruffleHog), and manual approval gates.
- π€ Agentic AI & LLMOps: Implementing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and LangGraph multi-agent swarms that ingest live infrastructure alerts, retrieve runbooks from vector stores, and autonomously generate remediation GitOps pull requests.
- π§ Systemized Architectural Knowledge: Architect of a 174+ note production-grade Obsidian Knowledge Vault spanning 16 domains, 33 Azure services, 400+ scenario interview questions, and real-world Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).

Demonstrating the architectural rationale and risk-tradeoff evaluations applied across production environments:
| ADR ID | Decision Title | Architectural Choice & Tradeoff Rationale | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR-001 | Workload Identity (OIDC) vs Service Principals | Selected OIDC. Eliminated long-lived client secrets stored in CI/CD variables; uses short-lived Azure AD tokens issued directly to GitHub/Azure DevOps runners. Eliminates credential leakage attack surface. | ACCEPTED π’ |
| ADR-002 | Central Hub-and-Spoke vs Full Mesh VNet | Selected Hub-Spoke. Enforces all cross-environment and outbound egress through a centralized firewall with User Defined Routes (UDRs), avoiding complex N*(N-1)/2 mesh peering costs and lack of visibility. | ACCEPTED π’ |
| ADR-003 | Decoupled Remote States vs Monolithic State | Selected Decoupled State. Split Hub, Spoke-Dev, and Spoke-Prod states into distinct Azure Blob containers with lease locking, preventing accidental blast radiuses and pipeline concurrency locks. | ACCEPTED π’ |
| ADR-004 | Model Context Protocol (MCP) for SRE AI | Selected MCP Standard. Provides a standardized, sandboxed protocol for AI agents to invoke Azure CLI and Kubernetes tools with strict permission boundaries rather than unsafe bash scripts. | ACCEPTED π’ |
