MANOJ KUMAR

- Maintained 99.9% uptime SLO across 50+ microservices on a Multi-Tenant SaaS platform on AWS ECS/EKS — tenant-isolated via namespace RBAC, Network Policies, and Zero Trust segmentation, with HPA auto-scaling, Prometheus/Grafana dashboards, and 24/7 on-call runbooks; reduced MTTR by 50%. - Architected Jenkins and GitLab CI/CD pipelines with shift-left security gates (SAST, SCA, DAST, OWASP-aligned checks, SonarQube, Trivy CVE scanning with auto-blocking) and HashiCorp Vault-managed secrets — cutting deployment cycle 60% (2 hrs → 45 min) while eliminating critical-CVE deployments. - Implemented ArgoCD GitOps with Argo Rollouts for declarative Kubernetes deployments — canary releases, automated rollbacks, drift detection, and zero-downtime releases across dev/staging/prod. - Hardened EKS clusters for Multi-Tenant SaaS workloads under a Zero Trust model with RBAC least-privilege, namespace isolation, and Service Mesh observability; cut infra provisioning from 2 days to 30 min via Terraform IaC with Checkov policy-as-code guardrails across AWS, Azure, and GCP. - Achieved 25% cloud cost reduction through FinOps practices — EC2 rightsizing, Compute/Database Savings Plans, and Reserved Instance optimisation validated via CloudWatch. - Designed HA/DR strategies (RTO < 15 min / RPO < 5 min); maintained 99.5% reliability for Redis and Elasticsearch with Terraform-managed multi-AZ failover, DR runbooks, and zero data loss. - Administered Linux/Unix servers; managed Git/GitHub branching strategies and cross-functional collaboration with development and security teams.
