hi, sahil here. 👋

yo DevOps engineer from India 🇮🇳

I build cloud systems that don't break at 3am. From zero-downtime migrations to cost-optimized infrastructure. I obsess over reliability, automation, and giving teams the confidence to deploy. Currently architecting scalable infrastructure at Buyogo AG.

My journey, philosophy, and what drives me

My Journey

I fell in love with DevOps when I realized deployments were the invisible bottleneck. Teams shipped code, but getting it to production safely and reliably? That's where the real problem lived. I became obsessed with removing that friction—building systems where infrastructure gets out of the way so engineers can focus on shipping.

My Philosophy

I believe infrastructure should be boring. Not in a boring-as-in-uninteresting way, but in a boring-as-in-it-just-works way. No surprises at 3am. No manual firefighting. I design systems with reliability and automation at the core, where scaling happens invisibly and observability tells the story of what's happening before it becomes a problem.

What I Value

I'm passionate about infrastructure that's reproducible, observable, and cost-conscious. I love solving problems that have scale (500+ users, millions of requests). I value teams that care about operational excellence and aren't afraid to question "the way we've always done it." Give me a problem where reliability matters, and I'll obsess over getting it right.

What People Say

MR
Manhal Rahman
DevOps Engineer at Buyogo AG

I worked with Sahil at Buyogo. He is an exceptional engineer who takes the lead of delivering features and owning them at an exceptional quality, along with his versatility of helping across the engineering org. He is well talented with Java, Terraform and AWS.

TK
Taylan Kutay
CEO at previous startup

I’ve worked closely with Sahil and found him to be a reliable, impact-driven DevOps engineer. He took strong ownership of cloud and infrastructure challenges, improved system reliability, and drove meaningful automation and cost optimizations in AWS. Sahil’s technical depth and proactive mindset made him someone I could trust with critical systems.

engineering philosophy

Defaults I reach for until the problem demands otherwise.

Stateless by Default

Push state to databases, caches, object stores. Compute is cheap; state is a liability.

Design for Failure

Retries, circuit breakers, graceful degradation. If it can't survive a node down at 3 AM, it's not prod-ready.

Observability > Monitoring

Monitoring says it's broken. Observability says why. Structured logs, traces, SLI-driven alerts.

IaC or It Didn't Happen

Not in version control? Doesn't exist. Terraform for infra, Actions for pipelines, PRs for changes.
