I build, automate, and manage reliable cloud infrastructure.
Manan Vaishnav — DevOps Engineer AWS Certified Solutions Architect
DevOps engineer and AWS Certified Solutions Architect. I automate deployments and build reliable AWS infrastructure — and because I also build websites, I can take a product from first layout to production.
02 · About me
A little about me, and my journey.
01 · About me
The person between your code and production.
I'm a DevOps engineer and AWS Certified Solutions Architect. I build the pipelines, containers and cloud infrastructure that get software shipped — and keep it running once it's live. I also build websites, so I understand both ends of the hand-off.

02 · Why I started
I got tired of deploying manually.
Hours disappeared into manual deployments — clicking buttons, waiting on servers, fixing whatever broke. In 2022 I started learning DevOps, and it changed how I saw the work. Automation became the obsession.
$ git diff manual..automated
--- before
+++ after
- click deploy, wait, hope
- servers configured manually
- "works on my machine"
+ every push tested and deployed
+ infrastructure as code
+ same container in every environment
+ rollbacks in one command
03 · The journey
Four years, one direction.
What started with learning DevOps fundamentals grew into working with AWS, deploying real projects, and building production-ready infrastructure. Today, I'm growing as a DevOps Engineer and continuing to explore what's next.

04 · How I work
How I approach DevOps.
I automate repetitive work, keep systems simple, and document what I build. The goal is infrastructure that stays predictable, reliable, and easy to understand.
$ cat values.yaml
values:
automate_first: true
# if it repeats, automate it
reliability: "boring on purpose"
simplicity: over_cleverness
documentation: always
# future me will thank me
production_mindset: true
# build for real-world use

06 · How I work
Five steps. Each one ends with something you keep.
Stage · 01
Understand
First, I understand what you need.
I look at your existing setup, how your application is deployed, and what needs to improve before making any changes.

Plan
Choose the right approach.
I plan the cloud setup and tools based on your needs, keeping things simple, reliable, and easy to manage.

Stage · 03
Build
Automate wherever possible.
I set up infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines to make deployments easier, faster, and more consistent.
Outputmain.tf · pipeline.yml
Stage · 04
Deploy
Get the application running smoothly.
I deploy the application, check that everything works as expected, and prepare a way to recover if something goes wrong.
