Ritabrita

I am an Azure Cloud Engineer and Site Reliability Engineer with experience designing, implementing, and operating secure, scalable, and highly available cloud solutions on Microsoft Azure. My expertise spans cloud infrastructure, observability, Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, and DevOps, with a strong focus on building reliable platforms that improve operational excellence and business outcomes. In my current role at SEI, I design and implement enterprise-grade observability solutions for Azure environments using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Application Insights, Kusto Query Language (KQL), Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and Terraform. I collaborate with architects, developers, and business stakeholders to design monitoring strategies, improve platform reliability, automate operational processes, and support architectural decisions for cloud-native workloads. Beyond day-to-day engineering, I actively contribute to solution design discussions, evaluate emerging Azure services, develop proof of concepts, and recommend scalable, resilient, and cost-effective cloud architectures. My work includes Infrastructure as Code, Kubernetes observability, cloud automation, CI/CD enablement, reliability engineering, and proactive incident management. Previously at Cognizant, I worked on Azure cloud infrastructure engineering and automation, where I helped build a Cloud Infrastructure Assurance Automation Framework that significantly reduced infrastructure validation time across more than 1,200 Azure resources while improving consistency and operational efficiency. I hold Microsoft certifications including AZ-900, AZ-104, AZ-400, and AZ-700, and I am currently preparing for AZ-305 (Designing Microsoft Azure Infrastructure Solutions) to strengthen my cloud architecture expertise. I am passionate about designing cloud solutions that are secure, scalable, observable, and resilient. My long-term goal is to grow into a Cloud Solution Architect role where I can combine technical expertise, architecture design, automation, and stakeholder collaboration to deliver enterprise-scale cloud solutions.
