About
Platform engineering, infrastructure, and practical systems work.
Hello! I'm Samundra, an IT professional passionate about building and securing infrastructure. My interest in technology started back in 2013 when I took a Network Engineer course — since then, I've been hooked on everything from datacenter operations to cloud automation.
Over time, that curiosity turned into hands-on work across virtualization, security tooling, cloud platforms, and internal systems. I like technical work that creates leverage: better platforms, better tooling, cleaner operations, and fewer repetitive problems for teams.
My current work sits at the intersection of platform engineering, infrastructure operations, and product-minded R&D — especially where modern cloud workflows meet practical operational reality.
