Techieonix is a specialist Cloud, DevOps, and FinOps firm helping startups and scale-ups build secure, scalable infrastructure and reduce cloud waste on AWS, Azure, GCP, and Oracle Cloud. We work as a true engineering partner, not a vendor. Engagements include direct client relationships and embedded DevOps partnerships within larger delivery organizations. Selected results: ● Reduced AWS cloud spend by $6,000/month (30% reduction) for a GCC-based e-commerce client through FinOps, centralized cost reporting, rightsizing, waste elimination, and a real-time cost dashboard ● Migrated a FinTech client's infrastructure to Oracle Cloud using Kubernetes and GitHub Actions CI/CD, achieving 99% uptime and fully eliminating manual deployments ● Designed and deployed a production-ready AWS cloud foundation for a SaaS startup, multi-tier architecture, Terraform IaC, automated CI/CD, and cost governance from day one. ● Modernized DevOps and security posture for an IT services company, reducing downtime and establishing enterprise-grade practices that enabled them to serve global clients confidently ● Built an AI-powered inventory management system that reduced client data analysis time by 50% and improved inventory turnover by 30% Core services: ✓ FinOps & cloud cost optimization (AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Cost Management, GCP FinOps) ✓ DevOps as a Service - CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, CloudFormation), Kubernetes, Docker ✓ Cloud architecture & migration - multi-cloud, AWS, Azure, GCP, Oracle Cloud ✓ SRE & reliability engineering - monitoring, observability, incident response ✓ Security & compliance - PCI-DSS, SOC 2 ✓ Full-stack development - MERN, Node.js, TypeScript

- Automated cloud operations, incident resolutions, and ETL workflows using serverless tools (Azure Functions, AWS Lambda, GCP Apps Script) and REST APIs, reducing manual intervention by 60%. - Designed and implemented a cloud-agnostic framework (AWS/Azure/GCP) with standardized policies, playbooks, monitoring, and security practices to streamline deployments and compliance. - Built ETL pipelines (Node.js, GCP, Firebase) to ingest and transform Azure cost data into BigQuery, enabling real-time cost governance. Automated infrastructure provisioning using Terraform and deployments via GitHub Actions. - Enforced 100% tagging compliance for Azure resources by developing an event-driven system (Azure Event Grid, Functions) with retry logic, Managed Identity authentication, and telemetry tracking via Application Insights. - Integrated security into CI/CD pipelines using SAST/DAST tools (SonarQube, Burp Suite), reducing vulnerabilities by 40% and ensuring secure code deployment. - Established organization-wide FinOps practices, reducing cloud costs by 25% through automated cost-data analysis, governance policies, and cross-team collaboration. - Secured multi-cloud workflows using Workload Identity Federation (GCP) and Azure Managed Identity, eliminating credential exposure risks. - Deployed real-time monitoring and alerting (Splunk, ELK Stack, Stackdriver) for security anomalies, system health, and compliance violations, achieving 99.9% uptime for critical services. - Architected scalable, cloud-native solutions (e.g., serverless ETLs, event-driven governance) to automate compliance, reduce operational toil, and align infrastructure with business goals. - Led cross-cloud CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions) to deploy applications across AWS, GCP, and Azure, ensuring seamless multi-cloud operations. I am proud to have successfully completed the “Architecting with Google Cloud: Design and Process” training program. This certification reflects my deep understanding
