Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJay Deokar is a Systems Development Engineer with seven years of experience building cloud-native infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and scalable automation across AWS and Kubernetes environments. Currently at AWS in San Francisco, he has deep practical experience improving production-grade tooling—having contributed to the widely used amazon-vpc-cni-k8s project by enhancing CI/CD, test integration, and security of Go module dependencies. Previously he led templating, GitOps, and Terraform/Helm work at OneTrust to manage 100+ microservices across dozens of environments and drove zero-downtime Docker-to-Kubernetes migrations. His background in SDN and networking (MS in Computer Networking) complements strong DevOps skills like Ansible, Flux2, and CloudWatch observability. Known for pragmatic automation, he often surfaces non-obvious improvements such as performance-focused test instrumentation and dependency-hardening that reduce operational risk. Based in the Bay Area, he is actively seeking full-time roles focused on software development and cloud infrastructure.
