Summary

Cloud architecture is my playground—and AWS is where I build.

With 4.5 years of experience across industries like banking, healthcare, and aviation, I’ve immersed myself in designing, developing, and deploying cloud-native solutions that scale. Whether it’s spinning up EC2 instances, writing infrastructure as code with CloudFormation, or orchestrating containerized services via ECS and Docker, I’ve done it all—with a keen focus on automation, security, and reliability.

I’m an AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate, and my toolkit includes EC2, IAM, S3, CloudWatch, ELB, ECS with Fargate, AppFlow, Docker, and Secrets Manager, among others. I’m driven by a passion to streamline cloud operations, reduce manual interventions, and design future-ready infrastructure.

My goal? To evolve into a cloud solutions architect who bridges the gap between innovation and implementation, delivering secure, scalable, and cost-effective architectures.

    • Created AWS architecture diagrams and, upon client approval, provisioned the required infrastructure using AWS CloudFormation templates.
    • Customized public Docker images by modifying Dockerfiles to meet project-specific needs and hosted the images in a private container registry.
    • Mounted Boomi API Gateway using Amazon ECS with Fargate by pulling the required Docker image from Docker Hub, storing the image in a private Artifactory repository, and deploying it in a serverless architecture to ensure scalability and security.
    • Set up Amazon ECS using Fargate to deploy serverless containers; created task definitions referencing Docker images and managed ECS services to maintain desired task counts.
    • Configured Application Load Balancer (ALB), created listener rules to route traffic to appropriate target groups, and registered ECS task IPs with the target groups.
    • Managed security groups by allowing necessary inbound IP ranges for ALB, EFS, and ECS to ensure secure communication across services.
    • Automated Docker image version updates (e.g., for Java upgrades) within CloudFormation templates and managed code promotion through production environments.
    • Stored one-time installation tokens as environment variables in ECS task definitions to securely deploy Boomi Molecules.
    • Automated secrets rotation in AWS Secrets Manager by developing a Lambda function, enhancing security and ensuring regular credential updates.
    • Developed an AWS EventBridge and AppFlow-based solution to receive notifications when standard/custom objects or platform events are updated in Salesforce.
