Proactively maintained cloud infrastructure for TCD users by leveraging in-depth knowledge of the TCD platform. Independently identified root causes for reported defects and implemented effective solutions. Led platform upgrades for each release, image promotions via Azure Container Registries, and template package installations single-handedly. Designed and implemented a jump box solution utilizing Jenkins pipelines, Azure CLI, Ansible, and Linux cron to dynamically add and remove Azure NSG rules and users from a Windows host. Enhanced security by 38% through Jenkins Master server upgrades manually to comply with IT security recommendations. Developed an automated Jenkins pipeline to streamline the Jenkins server upgrade process. Enhanced security by 48% through GitLab server upgrade process manually to meet IT security standards within stipulated timelines. Created an automated Jenkins pipeline to facilitate GitLab upgrades, ensuring smooth transitions through intermediate versions. Organized and grouped platform static servers in Azure Update Manager for OS and security patching after Azure Automation Update Management was deprecated. Conducted an in-depth analysis of CPU utilization across platform static servers, standardizing instance sizes for cost efficiency. Developed a Jenkins automation pipeline that generates and emails a weekly Excel report highlighting Azure orphan resources and unattached disks incurring unnecessary costs.
