Site Reliability Engineer - AI/ML Platform

JPMorgan Chase
Jersey City
03.2022 - Current
  • Collaborated with AI/ML, Data Engineering, and Platform teams to implement scalable and faulttolerant ML services using EMR, Spark, and SageMaker.
  • Design and maintain high-availability infrastructure patterns across AWS, Kubernetes (EKS), and internal platforms, minimizing toil and reducing operational incidents by 50%.
  • Lead the definition and implementation of non-functional requirements (NFRs), service level indicators (SLIs), and service level objectives (SLOs) to improve reliability and performance across core enterprise platforms.
  • Implemented error budgets to balance reliability and feature velocity, helping engineering teams prioritize operational work effectively.
  • Developed and maintained monitoring and alerting systems using Datadog, CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana, and Dynatrace, improving observability and reducing mean time to resolution (MTTR) by 30%.
  • Automated infrastructure tasks and repetitive procedures using Terraform, Ansible, and Python, reducing manual toil by over 50%.
  • Participated in 24/7 on-call rotations for critical services, and led blameless post-mortems to address root causes and drive systemic improvements.
  • Migrated data workloads to AWS using Pentaho and implemented robust security and access controls via IAM, Security Groups, and VPC configurations.
  • Contributed to the team's CI/CD modernization using Terraform, GitHub, and Jenkins, accelerating infrastructure provisioning and audit compliance.
  • Championed SRE culture by mentoring teams on reliability engineering principles and tooling adoption.
  • Contributed to the platform roadmap with a focus on automation, resiliency, and observability, aligning infrastructure goals with business priorities.

SRE - AWS, Kubernetes and Unix Infrastructure

Goldman Sachs
Salt Lake City
05.2019 - 03.2022
  • Designed and maintained large-scale observability platforms supporting metrics, logging, and distributed tracing across on-prem data centers and multi-cloud (AWS) environments, used by 2,000+ engineers globally.
  • Built and maintained robust, scalable AWS-based infrastructure using Terraform and Bitbucket CI/CD, enabling infrastructure-as-code practices and reducing provisioning time by 60%.
  • Automated deployment and scaling of containerized applications using Docker and Amazon EKS, with future readiness for Kubernetes adoption.
  • Designed and managed Amazon RDS environments for high availability and performance, incorporating backup automation and monitoring via CloudWatch.
  • Championed site reliability engineering practices-including SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, blameless postmortems, and toil reduction-across UAT and production environments.
  • Provided end-to-end support and lifecycle management for over 2,000+ low-latency Linux servers (RHEL) across global colocation sites and core data centers.
  • Performed advanced Linux kernel tuning and BIOS optimization to minimize jitter and latency on HP ProLiant DL380/580 (Gen 8-11) and Synergy hardware, aligned to real-time trading SLAs.
  • Tuned NICs, CPU affinity, IRQ balance, TCP/IP stacks to boost throughput and deterministic performance.
  • Automated infrastructure tasks with Ansible and shell scripts, including OS patching, compliance reporting, and performance diagnostics-reducing manual efforts and drift.
  • Delivered secure and resilient systems via clustering (VCS) and SAN-based storage replication, supporting high availability trading environments.
  • Administered VMware, integrated with ServiceNow for Incident, Problem, and Change Management processes; ensured uptime and rapid recovery across business-critical systems.
  • Collaborated with developers, network, and storage teams to test and deploy latency-sensitive applications across highly interconnected financial systems.
  • Built custom hardened Linux OS images with enforced guardrails for Docker,and Kubernetes deployments, integrated into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Integrated Linux authentication systems with Active Directory and LDAP using tools such as SSSD and Centrify, enforcing secure SSO, sudoers policies, and role-based access.
