// About

Jayaprakash

Infrastructure engineer with 11 years of experience across AWS, GCP, and Azure. Currently leading the GPU marketplace infrastructure at NVIDIA through ThoughtWorks.

Started as an Oracle DBA, moved to DevOps, then to cloud infrastructure. Now I design multi-tenant Kubernetes architectures, GPU orchestration systems, and platforms that don't page people at 3am.

CKA/CKAD certified. Built infrastructure for McKinsey, Pearson, Kohl's, Global Payments, and now NVIDIA.

When not staring at terminals: IoT projects with Raspberry Pi, keyboards, and trying to convince my plants they're in a DevOps environment (automated watering, you know).
