A graduate moving from coursework to production systems.

I finished my B.E. in Computer Science Engineering at Chandigarh University in 2026. This page covers how I got into DevOps and cloud work, how I approach problems, and what I am looking for next.

Where I started

I came to engineering through Linux and security. My first certificates were in cybersecurity: EC-Council's Attack and Defense Fundamentals in October 2024 and the Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate in April 2025. That gave me a habit I still use: ask how a system fails and who should be able to do what.

At Chandigarh University I studied Computer Science Engineering from 2022 to 2026. Alongside the degree I built applications, automation scripts and data pipelines, listed on the projects page.

Why DevOps and cloud

My interest moved from securing systems toward how software is packaged, tested and shipped the same way every time. I followed that through IBM's Introduction to DevOps (September 2025) and the AWS Cloud Solutions Architect professional certificate (February 2026), and put it into practice by containerizing projects and building GitHub Actions pipelines.

I am at the start of my professional career. My AWS work so far is coursework, and I am still learning Kubernetes and more advanced CI/CD patterns.

How I debug and learn

When I build a service I ask three questions early: how will it fail, who should be allowed to do what, and how will it be deployed. If a task happens more than twice, I script it. Two of my projects, the log utilities and the data-validation pipeline, are built around catching failures early and making them visible.

How I choose what to build

I keep practising by picking real problems that nobody has solved well, or that carry friction for the people who face them: finance, needless complexity, anything of that kind. SSCPrep is the clearest example. It is built for students to use, so it keeps changing whenever a new need shows up. My other projects are finished; the habit of looking for the next problem is what keeps my skills moving.

What I am looking for

Entry-level DevOps, cloud and backend engineering roles, or internships, on a team that cares about deployment quality, observability and operational resilience. I am based in Agra and willing to work from the office in Gurgaon.
