Four Engineering Pillars

🏗️

Solution Architect

End-to-end system design, reference architectures, RFC reviews, multi-team delivery roadmaps grounded in real production constraints.

🔐

DevSecOps

Security-first CI/CD, SAST/DAST, Vault, supply-chain hardening for regulated workloads (SOC2, PCI DSS, ISO 27001).

👥

Tech Lead

Platform & security squad leadership — technical strategy, architecture review, mentoring, hiring, staying hands-on in code.

🤖

MLOps Platform

End-to-end ML platform on EKS — KServe, Istio Gateway API, Karpenter GPU pools, and 4-loop CI/CD/CT/MT automation.

About Me

I'm a Solution Architect, DevSecOps Engineer & Tech Lead with over a decade in enterprise infrastructure and financial services — equally comfortable owning architecture decisions, mentoring squads, and writing the production code that ships them.

In May 2026 I joined VinSoc as Lead DevSecOps | MLOps, where I focus on end-to-end MLOps on Kubernetes: model serving, training pipelines, GPU autoscaling, and production-grade observability.

Previously Lead DevSecOps at VFS Securities (Jul 2025–Apr 2026), architecting secure, scalable infrastructure for lending and trading workloads. Earlier at SHS, re-architected product delivery and shipped cloud-native trading systems handling 10M+ daily transactions.

My expertise spans four connected pillars: Solution Architect (system design, RFC reviews), DevSecOps (security CI/CD, compliance), Tech Lead (squad leadership, mentoring, hiring), and MLOps Platform (KServe, Airflow, MLflow, DVC, Karpenter). Same Kubernetes foundation, same security discipline — applied across both application and ML workloads.
