Hi, I'm Sufiyan Durug

I work as a

I design, automate, deploy and maintain modern cloud infrastructure and production environments. With over a year of hands-on experience, I specialise in DevOps automation, containerization, Kubernetes orchestration, CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code, Linux administration and production support.

About

Building infrastructure that quietly never fails

Automation, cloud-native architecture and a bias for reliability.

I'm a DevOps Engineer with over a year of hands-on experience designing, automating, deploying and maintaining modern cloud infrastructure and production environments. My day-to-day spans AWS, Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code, monitoring and production support.

I genuinely enjoy solving complex infrastructure problems — untangling a broken deployment, shaving minutes off a pipeline, or turning a fragile server into a reproducible, self-healing system. DevOps culture, Linux internals, scalability and continuous learning are what keep me curious.

Career goal

Grow into a Senior DevOps Engineer and Cloud Architect, leading platform design for organisations at scale.

Mission

Help teams build secure, scalable and highly available platforms where deploying is boring and downtime is rare.

India

Automate everything

If a task runs twice, it becomes a pipeline, a playbook or a script.

Reliability first

Design for failure — backups, health checks and zero-downtime rollouts by default.

Security by default

Least-privilege IAM, hardened Linux baselines and encrypted traffic end to end.

Always learning

Cloud moves fast; I keep shipping, breaking and rebuilding to stay ahead.

Projects

Selected infrastructure work

Real problems, automated solutions and measurable outcomes.

Enterprise CI/CD Pipeline Automation

Unified multi-repo build, test and deploy pipelines with quality and security gates.

Challenge: Manual, inconsistent releases across teams.
Solution: Shared pipeline templates, artifact versioning and automated approvals.
Outcome: Release time cut from hours to minutes with reproducible builds.
