Architect | SRE | Application Performance
As an Architect at Cognizant, I have over 16 years of experience in delivering innovative and transformative solutions for various financial institutions. My core competencies include Site Reliability Engineering, Non-functional engineering, solution architecting, JVM tuning, capacity planning, resilience, Observability and cloud adaptation, leveraging tools such as Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic APM and SQL. As a Senior SRE Architect, I specialize in designing and implementing scalable, resilient, and highly available distributed systems. With deep expertise in cloud-native architectures (AWS, GCP, Azure), Kubernetes, observability, and automation, I drive enterprise-wide reliability strategies that enhance system performance and reduce operational toil. I lead the design of self-healing, fault-tolerant infrastructure, leveraging SLOs, SLIs, and error budgets to align engineering efforts with business goals. My passion lies in architecting next-generation reliability frameworks, integrating AIOps, chaos engineering, and predictive analytics to prevent failures before they occur. Beyond technical leadership, I mentor teams, influence engineering roadmaps, and foster a culture of proactive reliability, automation-first mindset, and operational excellence. As a strategic thought leader, I work at the intersection of SRE, DevOps, and software engineering to shape the future of reliability at scales.
