Cloud Infrastructure & Modernization Architect

I design and execute production-grade cloud modernization strategies for organizations transitioning from legacy on-premises infrastructure to secure, scalable AWS environments.

My work spans infrastructure transformation, backup & disaster recovery engineering, security remediation, and performance optimization for mission-critical workloads.

• Full on-prem to AWS transformation
• NAS replacement with Amazon FSx
• Archival data migration (20+ TB scale)
• Hybrid and fully cloud-hosted architectures
• Hardware dependency elimination

• Incremental and full backup strategies
• Geo-redundant replication
• Defined RTO and RPO alignment
• Ransomware-resilient immutable storage
• Disaster recovery drill design

• Secure cloud-hosted Tally environments
• Automated daily backups
• Snapshot-based recovery models
• Role-based access control
• Encrypted hybrid access

• Post-breach infrastructure assessment
• AWS security posture evaluation
• IAM least-privilege redesign
• Infrastructure vulnerability scanning
• Log retention and compliance readiness
• Encryption enforcement (at rest & in transit)

• Auto Scaling Group implementation
• Application Load Balancer configuration
• Peak traffic optimization (exam-time scaling)
• Right-sizing EC2 workloads
• Cost-performance balancing

• 20 TB archival migration with lifecycle cost optimization
• 5 TB hot storage migration replacing legacy NAS
• Centralized log archival and retention framework
• Geo-redundant disaster recovery strategy
• Compliance-ready infrastructure design

• Conducted Well-Architected security review after two security breaches
• Identified IAM misconfigurations and exposure risks
• Implemented least-privilege model
• Performed infrastructure-wide vulnerability assessment
• Introduced monitoring and automated alerting

• Designed Auto Scaling Groups for exam peak load
• Implemented Application Load Balancer
• Improved uptime resilience
• Right-sized compute resources
• Reduced infrastructure waste while improving scalability

• Resilience before expansion
• Security before exposure
• Scalability without waste
• Documentation as part of architecture
• Cost efficiency aligned with performance

• Hybrid cloud transformation strategies
• Disaster recovery architecture refinement
• Infrastructure security hardening
• Performance engineering for variable workloads
• Sustainable and ESG-aligned IT modernization

Cloud Platform

• Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Storage

• Amazon S3 (Intelligent-Tiering, Lifecycle Policies)
• Amazon FSx for Windows
• EBS Snapshots

Compute & Scaling

• EC2
• Auto Scaling Groups
• Application Load Balancer

Security

• IAM Architecture
• Encryption (SSE-S3 / SSE-KMS)
• Security Groups & NACLs
• Vulnerability Assessment

Monitoring

• SNS
• Log Archival & Retention
• Backup Failure Alerting

I build infrastructure that survives audits, breaches, peak load, and hardware failure.
