Hi, I'm Pinku
I'm a Cloud Architect
Principal Engineer @ Aptia Group. I design scalable architectures, build automated infrastructure pipelines, and orchestrate SRE operations.
Architecting Resilient Systems
At Scale
IT professional with 14+ years of growth in infrastructure engineering, middleware automation, and cloud adoption. I build stable platforms and automate operations.
What I Focus On
I architect enterprise infrastructure across cloud and hybrid environments. I specialize in building automation pipelines, enforcing SLO metrics, and minimizing operational toil. From migrating 300+ nodes to designing HIPAA-compliant environments, I apply SRE methodologies to streamline product delivery.
Core Philosophy
Measure performance. Automate redundant workflows. Ship business value. I believe infrastructure should operate invisibly so engineering teams can build products without delay.
Current Occupation
Principal Engineer @ Aptia Group. Spearheading virtualization, cloud migration strategies, identity security compliance, and platform reliability across global clusters.
Systems & Technologies
The specialized environments and tooling systems I deploy and operate daily.
Engineered Solutions
Production-grade infrastructure solutions demonstrating measurable business impact.

Colleague Feedback
Evaluations from managers and developers I have collaborated with.
Pinku automated our incident ticket generation pipeline by building an OAuth2 bridge that reduced resolution loops from hours to minutes. His systems knowledge is highly valuable.
The platform migrations executed by Pinku were seamless. His PowerShell pipeline automation eliminated weeks of potential manual overhead while maintaining service availability.
