Experience
Zarthi
Cloud Engineer, Zarthi
Oct 2025 — Aug 2026 · Remote, India - Operated AWS infrastructure for 10+ enterprise customers across healthcare, automotive and SaaS, keeping production and development environments available.
- Provisioned and administered Linux and Windows EC2 fleets across prod, dev and test — AMIs, key pairs, EBS snapshots, right-sizing — and resolved incidents through log analysis and request tracing.
- Strengthened security posture across 10+ AWS accounts with least-privilege IAM and org-wide MFA.
- Designed VPC networking for 10+ customer environments: subnets, route tables, Internet and NAT gateways, NACLs, security groups, peering, and site-to-site VPN to on-prem data centres.
- Automated backups with AWS Backup plus Lambda-driven snapshot cleanup, replacing a recurring manual snapshot-hygiene task and cutting storage spend.
- Instrumented 30+ CloudWatch alarms and Grafana dashboards, so incidents surface from alerts rather than from customer reports.
- Reduced monthly spend through Savings Plans and Reserved Instance analysis, storage-class tuning and right-sizing.
