Hey, I'm Sid!

🎓 I'm a Graduate student pursuing my Masters in Information Systems at the College of Engineering in Northeastern University, Boston.

🧐 I'm interested in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps and Fullstack Engineering! I just finished my Spring '23 Co-op as a Software Engineer at @Boehringer-Ingelheim USA, developing GPT powered chatbots for medical websites using Azure OpenAI & Power Virtual Agents, using Kubernetes and Helm Charts to deploy a highly available cluster for the chatbots.

🏢 Prior to my studies at Northeastern, I worked as a Senior Software Engineer in the PaaS team for Ericsson, Hungary as an Embedded Software developer and as a Front-End developer for Uber at Wipro Ltd. I was mainly involved in the development and maintenance of Ericsson's commercial router.

🧑‍💻 Currently, I working on a project where I work with a highly available kubernetes cluster which hosts a containerized REST API that is being deployed on a regional, multi-nodal private GKE cluster using Helm Charts. Logging and monitoring of metrics is done using Prometheus and Grafana. A custom health check on this REST API is done by a highly available Kafka cluster (deployed using the Bitnami Kafka Helm Chart as a dependency) on the same GKE cluster using the traditonal producer-consumer model.
