About
I'm a Software Development Analyst at a large public-sector organization in British Columbia. My work covers
the full stack: building and maintaining customer-facing digital platforms, including machine-learning-powered
features, and designing the cloud foundations behind them, including Azure Landing Zones, Terraform modules
and automated pipelines. I specialize in modern .NET, cloud-native architecture, Infrastructure as Code and end-to-end DevOps automation, with deep experience in secure API management and event-driven, ML-integrated systems.
Earlier in my career I was a full stack developer at DNN Software, a Tech Lead at Next Swedish Solutions, and
a web developer working on ASP.NET and Microsoft Dynamics CRM projects in India. I speak English, Hindi and
Punjabi.
