I am Abirame Kiruthikha Ramachandran, an Azure Certified Cloud DevOps Engineer with over 4 years of professional IT experience. My journey began as an Associate Process Consultant, where I honed my skills in process optimization and business automation. Over time, I transitioned into cloud engineering, specializing in Microsoft Azure infrastructure and DevOps practices, combining technical expertise with a keen focus on operational efficiency and security.
My core strengths lie in designing, implementing, and managing scalable cloud solutions using Azure. I am proficient in automating infrastructure provisioning through Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) with Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates, which ensures consistent and repeatable deployments. Leveraging Azure DevOps and Jenkins, I build efficient CI/CD pipelines that automate code integration, testing, and deployment, accelerating delivery cycles while maintaining high code quality. Additionally, I utilize GitHub Actions to support infrastructure-as-code workflows and enforce development best practices.
Containerization is a significant part of my skill set. I have extensive experience working with Docker to containerize applications for rapid deployment and consistent environments. On top of that, I orchestrate containerized workloads using Kubernetes (AKS), managing deployments, scaling, and ensuring load balancing for production-grade applications. I also integrate Docker images with Azure Container Registry (ACR) and automate deployments through multi-stage pipelines, including Helm chart management.
Security and compliance are top priorities in my cloud solutions. I configure Azure Active Directory (AAD) and Azure B2C for secure identity and access management, implement role-based access controls (RBAC), and use Azure Key Vault to securely manage secrets within automated pipelines. These practices protect sensitive data and ensure adherence to organizational policies.
Beyond technical skills, I bring strong client collaboration and project management abilities, backed by certifications such as Scrum Master and PRINCE2 Practitioner. I have a proven track record of delivering business process automation projects using Appian BPM, where I enhanced operational workflows and improved data interoperability for global clients.
In summary, I offer a combination of cloud engineering, DevOps automation, container orchestration, and process consulting expertise. My focus is on delivering robust, secure, and scalable cloud solutions that drive business growth and operational excellence. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex challenges and look forward to helping you succeed with your cloud and DevOps needs.
