Hi, I'm Ankush

I am a DevOps Engineer with over 2 years of hands-on experience automating, scaling, and managing production infrastructure. My day-to-day work focuses on building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, administering Linux web stacks, and keeping deployments reliable across dev, staging, and production environments.

I have deep, practical experience with GitHub Actions and GitLab CI/CD — including managing GitLab Runners and automating multi-environment releases with SSH, rsync, and Bash scripting. Alongside that, I work with cloud platforms (AWS and Azure), containerization (Docker and Kubernetes), and on-premises virtualization (VMware ESXi).

My focus areas are web infrastructure (LAMP/LEMP, Apache, Nginx, reverse proxies, SSL/TLS), database administration (MySQL/MariaDB), and network security (Sophos Firewall, site-to-site VPNs). I care about reducing manual effort, improving system reliability, and keeping infrastructure observability and maintainability front of mind.
