Projects

DevSecOps CI/CD Pipeline for Microservices Application

AmberTag Analytics Pvt. Ltd.

  • Designed and implemented a complete CI/CD pipeline from scratch for a microservices-based web application using Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Streamlined the build, test, and deployment of five microservices into a Kubernetes cluster, reducing manual deployment time by 80%.
  • Integrated SonarQube (SAST), Trivy (container vulnerability scanning), and OWASP ZAP (DAST) into the pipeline to enforce security and code quality throughout the development lifecycle.
  • Deployed Prometheus, cAdvisor and Grafana for real-time monitoring and alerting of application performance and infrastructure health.
  • Used Ansible to automate configuration management and environment provisioning, ensuring consistent setups across development and production environments.

Automating AWS Infrastructure Provisioning & Configuration using Terraform & Ansible

AmberTag Analytics Pvt. Ltd.

  • Orchestrated the deployment of AWS services like VPC, IAM roles, and security groups, EC2, Target Group, ALB, ASG, S3, Route53, CodePipeline, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy.
