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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  1. 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.

  2. Stage · 02

    Plan

    Choose the right approach.

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

  3. 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

  4. 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.

    Outputrunbook.md

  5. Stage · 05

    Monitor

    Keep things running reliably.

    I set up monitoring and alerts, review resource usage, and document how to manage the system going forward.

From cloud infrastructure to live websites.

Four layers I take care of end to end. DevOps is the foundation; the website is the layer people see.
