SENIOR PLATFORM / DEVOPS ENGINEER
Cloud & DevOps
with a focus on reliability.
I work with AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud to manage cloud infrastructure and support Kubernetes-based applications. I use Terraform and CI/CD automation to make deployments more consistent, and monitoring tools to investigate production issues. I’m also exploring Nextcloud and self-hosted infrastructure.

01 / ABOUT ME
A little about how I work.
I'm Sowmya. My background is in DevOps and cloud infrastructure, with hands-on work across Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, monitoring, and production support.
I like work where I can understand the whole path — from infrastructure and deployment to what happens when something breaks. Here I'm collecting practical projects, notes, and examples I can share publicly.
Outside work, I'm building TechGalary, attending tech community events, volunteering when I can, and looking for opportunities to contribute to open source.
