Summary
Ravindu Fernando is a Senior DevOps Engineer with seven years of hands-on experience building and operating cloud-native platforms, currently focused on platform engineering at Sysco LABS Sri Lanka. He has deep expertise in AWS, Kubernetes/EKS, Terraform, CI/CD and observability—having built resilient Concourse pipelines, automated AMI creation with Packer/Chef, tuned autoscaling with Karpenter, and implemented Datadog and Prometheus-based monitoring. Ravindu pairs platform stewardship with cost and security discipline, leading initiatives like IRSA/IdP cross-account access, AMI/snapshot automation for DR, DORA metrics POCs, and an AI-driven DevOps chatbot for self-service. Early work in frontend development and an internship building ML-based microservice performance predictors give him a practical full-stack sensibility that helps bridge developer experience and infrastructure. He also invests in knowledge sharing—running onboarding and CI/CD/Kubernetes training—to raise team delivery and observability maturity.
