Muhammad U. is a DevOps Engineer with over four years of experience in building and operating cloud-native infrastructure, primarily in AWS and Google Cloud environments. His core technology stack includes Kubernetes (EKS), Docker, and Terraform, through which he designs and manages scalable, high-availability systems. Muhammad builds CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI, and GitHub Actions, integrating security tools like SonarQube and Trivy. He implements observability solutions with Prometheus, Grafana, and Datadog, and practices Infrastructure as Code with tools like Ansible and CloudFormation. Notable projects include architecting a production-ready Amazon EKS infrastructure using Terraform, and reducing cloud infrastructure costs by up to 90% through strategic optimizations. He successfully led a monolith to microservices migration on EKS, enhancing deployment reliability and system performance. Muhammad holds a Bachelor of Computer Science from the University of Peshawar and is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure certified. He is well-suited for roles that involve designing robust DevOps architectures and optimizing cloud operations for cost and performance efficiency.
Designed and provisioned production-ready Amazon EKS infrastructure using Terraform with reusable modules, remote state management, IAM roles, VPC networking, managed node groups, and autoscaling, enabling consistent and automated Kubernetes deployments.
Implemented a complete observability stack using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, OpenTelemetry, and Jaeger for infrastructure, applications, and databases. Configured dashboards, log aggregation, distributed tracing, alerting, and Slack/Email notifications to improve system visibility and incident response.
Built an end-to-end CI/CD pipeline for Development, Staging, and Production environments using GitHub Actions and Google Cloud Build. Integrated AI-based failure detection, automated testing, security scanning, deployment approvals, and rollback strategies to improve deployment reliability.
Reduced cloud infrastructure costs by up to 90% through networking and architecture optimization, including CDN redesign, storage optimization, caching improvements, and traffic routing enhancements while maintaining application performance and availability.
Led the migration of a monolithic application to a Kubernetes-based microservices architecture using Docker and Amazon EKS. Designed the complete platform including CI/CD with Jenkins, security scanning using Trivy, SonarQube, and OWASP Dependency-Check, GitOps deployment with ArgoCD, and end-to-end monitoring using Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki with Slack and email alerting.
Architected and deployed a highly available three-tier application on AWS using public/private subnets, Application Load Balancer (ALB), Auto Scaling Groups (ASG), NAT Gateway, AWS WAF, VPN connectivity, and secure networking following AWS best practices.
Successfully migrated enterprise applications from on-premises infrastructure to a private cloud environment using a lift-and-shift approach. Planned migration strategy, minimized downtime, validated workloads, and optimized infrastructure for improved scalability and operational efficiency.
