Akshat Sinha

I build and operate cloud-native infrastructure at scale, managing 100+ Kubernetes clusters across AWS, GCP, and Azure for Indian unicorns and enterprise fintechs. I care about reliability, automation, and shipping fast without breaking things.

Migration

AKS → GKE: 20 Clusters, Zero Downtime

Led the full migration of 20+ production Kubernetes clusters (200+ nodes) from Azure AKS to GCP GKE. Coordinated workload scheduling, and DNS failover with zero service interruptions across all environments.

Automation

PostgreSQL 11 → 14 Automated Migration for 20K+ OSS Users

Designed and shipped an automated migration system moving Devtron OSS users from Bitnami PostgreSQL 11 to Official PostgreSQL 14. Used Kubernetes jobs with pre/post validation checks to ensure data integrity, enabling hands-off upgrades across thousands of self-hosted installs.

✓ 20K+ users · zero data loss

Reliability

Incident Response at Scale: 95% First-Response Resolution

Owned incident response for 50–60+ monthly production escalations across 100+ clusters. Drove blameless postmortems and implemented preventive automation that reduced recurring incidents by 40%, while maintaining a 30-minute MTTR across all environments.
