2021 — Present
Expert Technology Infrastructure & Cloud Solution Architect
SoftwareOne
Leads regulated cloud migrations and landing-zone design for banks/FSIs in Malaysia and APAC, blending AWS platform engineering with policy-as-code aligned to BNM RMiT.
- Delivered RiverMeadow/VEEAM-led migrations when AWS MGN was unavailable, maintaining security baselines and minimizing downtime.
- Ran discovery + assessment with Cloudamize, TCO analysis, wave planning, and AWS Well-Architected gap closure.
- Built regulated AWS landing zones: VPC segmentation, VPN/Direct Connect, mTLS, centralized logging/backup, and automated guardrails.
- Mapped RMiT controls to policy-as-code guardrails (egress, encryption, IAM least-privilege, logging retention) embedded in Terraform/GitOps pipelines.
- Produced landing-zone reference designs and control evidence packs for compliance teams; enabled audit-ready posture with conformance checks.
- Implemented CI policy checks and approved AMI whitelisting to block non-compliant changes before deploy.

Cloud Operations Architect Specialist
Accenture
Owned IaC, Kubernetes operations, and CI/CD pipelines across AWS and Azure; standardized backups, tagging, and compliance.
- Converted CloudFormation to Terraform; managed EC2/VM scale sets, load balancers, bastions, and secure root rotations.
- Implemented tag-compliance reporting, cost/performance tuning via CloudWatch + Trusted Advisor, and governance.
- Built Docker images, Jenkins pipelines, and Ansible playbooks to automate patching and delivery.
- Guided clients on cloud adoption strategy, security oversight, and continuous improvement of operations.
Oct 2015 — Nov 2019
Tech Lead
Cognizant
Handled incident/change management under ITIL, IAM governance, and AWS-hosted service reliability for enterprise apps.
- Ran major-incident coordination, post-mortems, and service restorations across application teams and vendors.
- Managed IAM roles/policies, SFTP setups, and access controls; oversaw Git branching and CI/CD pipeline health.
- Built and deployed Docker containers, Maven builds, and Tomcat releases; generated availability and MSR reports.
Projects
Featured builds & accelerators
Curated work spanning landing zones, platform reliability, and data observability.
Adaptive Cloud Landing Zone
12min to provision a compliant sandbox; accelerates RMiT evidence with built-in policy checks and conformance packs.
Opinionated AWS blueprint with org guardrails, multi-account VPC topology, and policy packs mapped to BNM RMiT controls (encryption, egress, IAM, logging).
Kubernetes Reliability Kit
Reduced Sev-1 frequency by 30% after adopting SLO-driven alerting and autoscaling recipes.
Collection of K8s operators, Prometheus rules, and chaos scenarios to harden critical workloads.
Data Pipeline Observability
Decreased data incident triage time from hours to minutes with standardized runbooks.
End-to-end lineage, quality gates, and anomaly detection for streaming + batch pipelines.
