05 / THE ENGINEER & THE STORY

Yamandeep Chaudhary

Software Engineer → Cloud & DevOps Engineer. Based in Faridabad, Haryana, India.

“I started by building applications. Now I'm spending more time understanding what happens after the application is finished.”

My engineering trajectory hasn't followed a generic template. I didn't start by reciting cloud certifications; I started by building real applications for people.

01. APPLICATIONS

Shipped multi-tenant legal and financial platforms at IO2i Outsourcing. Built Python/FastAPI backends, Rust/WebAssembly frontends, and dynamic OTP authentication engines.

02. AUTOMATION

Automated complex data collection from judicial tribunals (DRT, NCLT, High Courts), integrated Zoom APIs via webhooks, and deployed headless browser bots on Linux servers.

03. INFRASTRUCTURE

Deepening into cloud networks: VPC partitioning with Terraform on AWS, configuration management via Ansible, CI/CD pipelines via AWS SSM, and Prometheus observability.
