AWS Certified Developer AWS Solutions Architect Terraform Associate

About Me

I'm Krishna Chaitanya, a Senior DevOps Engineer with 9+ years of experience specializing in cloud infrastructure, automation, and CI/CD pipelines. Currently at Experian, I architect and implement scalable AWS solutions while previously driving cloud transformation at Verizon. My expertise spans Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, and modern DevOps practices.

With 9 years of IT experience as a DevOps Engineer, I specialize in Build/Release management, Infrastructure Security, and Cloud Computing. My expertise lies in creating automation solutions that enhance productivity and streamline workflows.

I have extensive experience deploying applications using Jenkins, Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines for containerized applications (Spring boot & Tomcat microservices), GitLab, JFrog Artifactory, Docker, and Kubernetes. Throughout my career, I've implemented infrastructure as code solutions with Terraform and CloudFormation.

Most recently, I've been building intelligent systems using Amazon Bedrock and Lang Chain, creating autonomous, feedback-adaptive architectures that leverage AI for DevOps automation. My passion for continuous learning has led me to explore cutting-edge technologies while maintaining robust, secure infrastructure.

Skills & Expertise

My technical skills span the full DevOps spectrum with particular strengths in AWS cloud architecture, containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, IaC with Terraform, and CI/CD pipeline development. I'm proficient in Python and Bash scripting for automation, and have experience implementing security best practices across cloud environments.
