Experience

DevOps Intern

@ MilkBasket

April 2024 - May 2024 (2 months)

During my internship, I built CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, managed cloud deployments, and automated existing workflows. I also developed an in-house observability solution, "Uptime," to monitor service health, track response metrics, and send alerts for downtime and SSL expirations. This significantly improved incident response, supported SLOs and SLIs, and saved the company approximately $8,000 annually compared to third-party tools.

In addition to my technical work, I contributed to a collaborative and supportive team environment by helping others, learning from peers, and understanding their needs, enhancing both team productivity and my interpersonal skills.
