Senior Cloud & AI Solutions Architect with 7+ years designing secure, scalable, cost-optimized platforms for Fortune 500 enterprises and government organizations across India and globally. I help large, complex organizations modernize on the cloud and adopt AI responsibly — owning the full lifecycle from strategy and RFP through architecture, security, and delivery. I architect to the business need — migration, modernization, or greenfield — choosing the right pattern per requirement rather than forcing one stack. That approach has generated $5M+ in annual revenue, including a smart-metering platform serving 5M+ meters PAN-India with a 42% cost reduction, plus fault-tolerant systems for mission-critical programs such as MNRE's analytics platform, PM Surya Ghar (PMSG) portal, Indian Carbon Market Portal and many more. I increasingly lead how organizations adopt AI — generative AI on Amazon Bedrock (RAG assistants, intelligent document processing), production ML, MLOps, and LLM training and deployment — delivered with the governance, security, and cost discipline that regulated enterprises and public trust demand. I lead AWS Technical Field Communities in Serverless and Generative AI & ML, and serve as SME for AWS cloud infrastructure, Lambda, and API Gateway. Beyond architecture, I lead large-scale Infrastructure Event Management (IEM), technical trainings, and mentoring, and manage complex client and partner relationships end-to-end. Key specializations: • Multi-cloud architecture — AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI • AI & GenAI, Machine Learning — LLM training/deployment, MLOps, ML solutions • Serverless (Lambda & API Gateway SME) and Cloud Microservices • Cloud security, advanced analytics & BI • Infrastructure as Code — CDK, CloudFormation, Terraform • Containers & orchestration — Docker, Kubernetes • DevOps & CI/CD, system design & performance optimization • Enterprise & government solutions, technical leadership & mentoring Passionate about continuous learning and emerging technology — and about delivering solutions that drive real growth, resilience, and operational efficiency. *All views expressed here are my own and do not reflect those of my employer or any client.*
