About Me

Profile

I’m Siddharth Mahajan, a Solution Architect and Cloud Engineer specializing in designing scalable, secure, and highly available cloud-native systems. My expertise lies in Kubernetes, service mesh technologies like Istio, and building efficient pipelines that boost delivery speed and system resilience. I’ve led infrastructure modernization initiatives, optimized observability using EFK stacks, and crafted CI/CD workflows for critical applications, always grounding architecture decisions in real-world performance and reliability.

Beyond technical implementation, I focus on enabling vendor interoperability, creating custom API gateways, and mentoring teams to bridge the gap between technology and business needs. By combining coding skills, cloud expertise, and collaborative leadership, I deliver solutions that not only function effectively but continuously evolve to meet changing demands.
