Work History
Software Engineer
Microsoft
07.2024 - Current
- Improved Linux migration readiness (Azure Linux 3.0). Designed and tested end-to-end application deployments for Windows-to-Linux migration on COSMIC AKS, validating builds, rollouts, and pod health across multiple stages. This reduced migration risk for production clusters and increased confidence for OS upgrades, affecting hundreds of nodes per cluster.
- Improved node reliability and recovery time. Analyzed node and component health telemetry to identify delays during failures and recovery. Helped reduce component recovery time (Not Ready → Healthy) by 20–30%, improving overall cluster stability, and lowering operational incidents.
- Strengthened security using modern Linux protections, validated and prototyped security controls using Tetragon (runtime visibility) and SELinux (policy enforcement) on AKS Linux nodes. Improved workload isolation, audit visibility, and security posture, while reducing the need for manual troubleshooting during incidents.
