Manisankar D.

Senior AWS Engineer (3x Pro Certified) | Security, Migration, EKS, IaC

Top Rated AWS engineer with a 100% Job Success score across 80+ contracts and 1,700+ hours — and all three AWS professional-tier certifications: Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer, and Security Specialty. I help teams run AWS that's secure, cost-efficient, and safe to deploy to — whether you're migrating with zero downtime, hardening an estate for an audit, or getting Kubernetes and CI/CD under control. What I can do for you: Zero-downtime migrations — data centre to AWS, or re-platforming existing workloads with no customer-facing outage. Security & compliance — least-privilege IAM, guardrails, OKTA federation, and getting estates audit-ready for ISO 27001 / SOC 2. Cost optimization — I've cut 10–15% from a $2M annual AWS bill through rightsizing and Savings Plans. Kubernetes & IaC — production EKS with Helm, everything in Terraform so it's reproducible and reviewable. CI/CD & automation — reliable pipelines, golden AMIs, and a deployment process your team can trust. Behind the profile is 20+ years in infrastructure and 9 building on AWS — across security products, regulated finance, and managed service providers — so chances are I've seen your problem before. I'm available now and usually reply within a few hours. Tell me what you're trying to achieve and I'll be honest about how I can help and where to start.
