01 · Who I am
Cloud & DevOps Engineer with 5 years of experience designing scalable cloud infrastructure, building CI/CD pipelines, automating deployments, and enabling high-availability systems on AWS. Strong expertise in containerization, Infrastructure as Code, observability, and production support — focused on automation, operational excellence, and continuous improvement.
What sets my work apart is the combination of deep hands-on engineering and the ability to teach it. Explaining Kubernetes networking to a beginner forces a clarity of understanding that makes my production designs simpler and more robust.
When I'm not shipping infrastructure, I create tutorials and guides on AWS and DevOps, and mentor engineers making the switch into cloud roles.
2021
Graduated in Computer Science and started as a Full Stack Development Trainee, working with React.js and APIs.
Nov 2021
Administered AWS environments for Unilever's production, built ELK observability, hardened IAM and automated ops with Bash & Python.
Jul 2023
Owning AWS infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines — EKS, ECS Fargate, Terraform, Kafka event streaming and DevSecOps with SonarQube & Trivy.
Jan 2024
Started training engineers part-time — 5 batches and 150+ learners mentored through hands-on AWS & DevOps projects.
May 2026
Joined Cloud Platforms & Operations — running AWS platform infrastructure with Dynatrace, Datadog, Chef and Terraform.
Now
Building cloud infrastructure by day, mentoring engineers, and creating content at Cloud, Code & AI on YouTube.
02 · What I work with
03 · Things I've built
Production-ready microservices architecture containerized with Docker, deployed to Minikube and EKS clusters using Helm charts, with DevSecOps checks (static analysis and image scanning) built into the CI/CD workflow.
▲ End-to-end automated, secure deployments
Reusable Terraform templates provisioning VPC, subnets, IGW, route tables, ECR repositories and IAM roles — consistent, version-controlled infrastructure patterns across environments.
▲ Consistent, reusable infra patterns
Security enforcement integrated directly into Jenkins and GitHub Actions pipelines — static code analysis with SonarQube and container image scanning with Trivy for early vulnerability detection.
▲ Vulnerabilities caught before production
Kafka-based event streaming between microservices, replacing synchronous service-to-service calls with asynchronous messaging for faster, more resilient communication.
▲ Service-to-service latency cut by 30%
Automated end-to-end web application testing with Selenium WebDriver, wired into the CI/CD pipeline so every deployment is verified automatically before release.
▲ Manual regression effort reduced by 40%
ELK Stack for centralized log visibility plus CloudWatch dashboards and proactive alerts for latency, CPU, memory and error trends across production workloads.
▲ MTTR improved by 40%

Hands-on Projects
“Neeraj sir's AWS batch changed my career. Everything is hands-on — by the end I had real projects on my resume and cleared my certification on the first attempt.”
“The best part is how he simplifies complex topics like Kubernetes networking. His mock interviews gave me the confidence to crack my DevOps role.”
“I went from zero Linux knowledge to deploying my own EKS cluster in 3 months. The curriculum is intense but incredibly practical.”
