Imran Khan is a Lead Platform Engineer with 9 years of hands-on experience building secure, automated cloud-native platforms for telecom and industrial clients. He specializes in Kubernetes/OpenShift deployments, GitOps and infrastructure-as-code using Terraform/Pulumi, with deep Azure and GCP expertise and proven experience running GKE/AKS at scale. Imran blends platform engineering with DevSecOps practices—implementing policy-as-code (Kyverno), secrets management (Vault/ESO/SOPS) and CI/CD pipelines that incorporate SAST/DAST and supply-chain controls. His background in telecom systems (OCSG, SMPP, MINSAT, UCIP) and middleware (Spring Boot, Apache Camel, JBoss Fuse) gives him an edge when integrating complex legacy systems into modern containerized environments. Based in Berlin, he is pragmatic about cost and governance, having led FinOps-driven optimizations and reusable Terraform/Helm standards across multiple clients. Notably, he has repeatedly delivered end-to-end platforms that combine compliance, security and developer ergonomics rather than just raw infrastructure.
