🎯 About • 🎖️ Certifications • 💻 Tech Stack • 🚀 Projects • 🧰 Products • 🧭 Work History
AI Platform & Solutions Architect with 9+ years building production AWS platforms, serverless backends, and GenAI infrastructure. I work best with teams running serious systems under multi-region, high-traffic, cost-sensitive, on-call reality — where reliability and governance actually matter.
Available for consulting and fractional engagements as an AWS cost optimization (FinOps) consultant, Amazon Bedrock / production RAG engineer, serverless & platform reliability architect, and forward-deployed AI engineer.
 💰 Cost Optimizer FinOps that sticks |
 🔒 Security First tight IAM, small blast radius |
 🚀 Reliability 5M orders/mo · 99.99% |
 🤖 GenAI Infra Bedrock · RAG · agents |

Most engagements start the same way. Something is on fire, or the AWS bill stopped making sense, or a GenAI system is falling apart under real traffic. I find what is bleeding, stop it, and make sure it cannot happen again.
I build systems that survive real traffic, real failure modes, and real cloud bills. Not demos. The boring, reliable kind that does not wake you up at 3 AM. |
PG Certificate — Agentic AI, GenAI & ML 🏛️ IIT Roorkee · 2025–2026 M.Sc. Information Technology VNSGU Surat · 2018–2020 B.Sc. Information Technology VNSGU Surat · 2016–2018 🏅 Distinguished Alumni Recognition (60th Anniversary) 📍 Surat, India · Remote-first · IST + US |

🤖 GenAI Infrastructure Bedrock & SageMaker pipelines built for real traffic. RAG, agent workflows, guardrails, and evals that hold up past demo day — chunking, embedding selection, reranking, RAGAS + LangSmith loops. 💰 Cost Control (FinOps) I find the spend your AWS bill is quietly bleeding and stop it. Token budgets, spend governance, right-sizing, S3 tiering, connection pooling. FinOps that actually sticks. |
🏗️ Platform & Reliability Multi-region systems with proper observability, incident playbooks, and safe rollouts. Lambda Powertools, structured logging, tight IAM scoping to keep blast radius small. 🚀 Cloud Delivery Terraform, CDK, Kubernetes, CI/CD. Shipped fast, without breaking prod. Blue-green and canary by default, rollback planned before the deploy. |
How I weigh a system: Cost — what does this become at 10x scale? Reliability — what happens when one component fails? Blast radius — how much breaks at once? Ops load — who maintains this at 2 AM? Time to ship — is this overbuilt? I prefer boring but reliable over clever but fragile. Every time. If something is a bad idea, I say it directly and explain the consequence.

I founded InfraTales to democratize enterprise-grade AWS infrastructure and tell the real war stories — what broke, what it cost, what changed. Launched 7 Apr 2026 (Ghost v6 on Lightsail). Every project is battle-tested, documented with cost analysis in ₹, and production-ready.

Most-used languages
Looking for an AWS cost optimization / FinOps consultant?
Yes. I run AWS cost audits and FinOps engagements that remove ₹50L+/yr of cloud waste — right-sizing, S3 tiering, connection pooling, GenAI token-budget governance, and spend guardrails that actually stick. → Book a call
Need an Amazon Bedrock / production RAG consultant?
I build production GenAI infrastructure on AWS Bedrock and SageMaker — RAG pipelines, agent workflows, guardrails, and LLM evaluations (RAGAS, LangSmith) that hold up past demo day, not just in a notebook.
Want a fractional cloud / platform architect for hire?
I take on fractional architect and consulting engagements — architecture reviews, multi-region reliability, AWS Well-Architected audits, and technical advisory. 9+ years, 3x AWS Professional, 4x AWS Community Builder.
Forward-deployed engineer for AI / customer-facing delivery?
I work forward-deployed — embedding with your engineers to take AI and cloud features from prototype to production under real traffic, real failure modes, and on-call reality.
AWS serverless or platform reliability help?
Serverless architecture (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Step Functions, EventBridge), multi-region high availability, observability, and safe blue-green / canary rollouts with rollback planned before the deploy.
I'm open to consulting engagements and fractional architect roles — GenAI infrastructure, platform & reliability, and FinOps.
engagements:
- GenAI infrastructure: Bedrock / RAG / agents, guardrails, evals
- Platform & reliability: multi-region, observability, safe rollouts
- Cost (FinOps): audits, governance, token + spend ceilings
- Fractional architect: design reviews, technical advisory
