Muthusoft Labs Private Limited
Chennai, India
DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer (SRE)
Aug 2025 – Apr 2026
Worked on cloud-hosted microservice platforms, owning CI/CD, infrastructure provisioning and observability to support product engineering teams.
Tech Stack: Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation, AWS EC2, S3, RDS, ALB, ASG, IAM, Prometheus, Grafana, New Relic, CloudWatch, Python, Bash
  • Designed and operated end-to-end CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI and GitHub Actions to enable consistent builds and automated deployments across environments.
  • Managed containerized workloads with Kubernetes and Docker; implemented Helm charts and pod auto-scaling to improve availability and deployment predictability.
  • Authored and maintained Terraform, Ansible and CloudFormation IaC modules to provision repeatable environments and eliminate configuration drift.
  • Configured AWS infrastructure (EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, RDS, ALB, ASG) with least-privilege IAM policies and RBAC to strengthen environment security and compliance.
  • Implemented observability using Prometheus, Grafana, New Relic and CloudWatch to surface SLIs and enable alerting, significantly reducing mean time to resolution for production incidents.
  • Established SRE practices by defining SLIs/SLOs, integrating them into runbooks, and leading L2/L3 incident responses and RCA to remove systemic failure modes.
