Representative Projects

A structured index of representative delivery work across platform engineering, Kubernetes, cloud architecture, multi-cloud, DevSecOps, and observability. Each project links to a dedicated detail page.

How to use this page

Start with the category that matches your initiative, then open the relevant project page for the implementation details, delivery approach, tools, and handover model.

OpenShift Application Containerization and Workload Migration Program

Assessed, containerized, and migrated a portfolio of legacy application workloads from virtual machines onto an existing OpenShift platform, establishing a repeatable release path based on standardized container builds, Helm-packaged deployments, and Argo CD promotion across environments.

Istio Service Mesh Deployment and mTLS Enforcement Across Microservices

Designed and rolled out an Istio service mesh across a financial-services Kubernetes platform to enforce mutual TLS between services, improve service-to-service observability, and introduce a controlled path for progressive delivery, traffic shaping, and resilience policies.

Cloud Architecture

Cloud Architecture

AWS, Azure, and GCP platform foundations, landing zones, resilience patterns, cost governance, and shared-services architecture.

6 projects

AWS Architecture 18 weeks

Multi-Account Landing Zone and EKS Platform Deployment

Designed and deployed an AWS foundation for a growing engineering organization that needed stronger environment separation, clearer security boundaries, and a production-ready container platform.

Multi-Cloud & Data

Multi-Cloud & Data

Cross-cloud delivery patterns, disaster recovery, data platforms, and analytics or ML workloads split across providers.

3 projects

Multi-Cloud 20 weeks

AWS Primary Kubernetes Platform with Azure Disaster Recovery

Designed and deployed a multi-cloud resilience pattern for a customer-facing multi-tier web application composed of a static frontend, Kubernetes-hosted APIs and workers, PostgreSQL, Redis, and object storage. The client needed provider-level disaster recovery rather than only regional resilience, with the production runtime hosted on AWS and a warm-standby recovery stack maintained on Azure.

Multi-Cloud Data & AI 18 weeks

AWS Transactional Platform with GCP Analytics and ML Services

Designed a true multi-cloud platform where customer-facing workloads remained on AWS while analytics and machine learning capabilities were implemented on GCP using managed data and MLOps services better suited to that part of the workload.

Event-Driven Data Pipeline and Analytics Foundation on GCP

Designed and deployed a GCP-based data platform for moving operational data into a cleaner analytics workflow with better reliability, traceability, and downstream consumption patterns.

DevSecOps Pipeline Hardening and Software Supply Chain Security

Embedded security controls across the software delivery pipeline for a financial-services environment where audit requirements, vulnerability management, and supply chain integrity needed to be addressed at the platform level rather than left to individual teams.
