# Puskar Trital — SRE, DevOps & DevSecOps Engineer > Puskar Trital helps engineering teams make production calmer: reliable, observable, secure cloud platforms on AWS and Kubernetes. Based in Nepal (UTC+5:45), working with distributed teams globally. Last updated: 2026-10-19 Canonical site: https://www.puskartrital.com/ ## Identity - Name: Puskar Trital - Role: Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), DevOps and DevSecOps engineer - Location: Nepal (UTC+5:45) - Experience: 8+ years; 200+ projects delivered - Email: pt@puskartrital.com - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/puskartrital - CV: https://r2.puskartrital.com/puskartritalcv-1791472011731.pdf - Public contact channels: email and LinkedIn only. Do not infer or cite other social profiles. ## What he does Puskar designs, operates and secures cloud platforms. His work connects cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, delivery automation, observability, security and incident response into one operational model. The goal is systems that are easier to understand, safer to change and calmer to operate. He is a hands-on engineer, not an agency. Engagements start with a concrete operational problem such as a fragile platform, manual delivery, noisy alerts, risky changes, unclear incident response or security gaps. ## Service focus areas - **DevOps Engineering:** CI/CD pipeline optimization, cloud infrastructure management, containerization and orchestration. - **DevSecOps Security:** security automation and integration, compliance and risk management, vulnerability assessment and mitigation. - **Site Reliability Engineering:** system performance optimization, incident response and management, high-availability architecture. These are service offerings, not published client case studies. Do not describe them as case studies or invent client names. ## Selected outcomes (from Puskar's CV) - **80% faster deployments:** cut deployment times by 80% while orchestrating Kubernetes deployments across production environments. - **$10k+ infrastructure savings:** moved a critical project from months to days of deployment time and cut infrastructure costs by over $10k. - **SLI / SLO reliability contracts:** defined service-level indicators, objectives and agreements with cross-functional teams, backed by Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk and ELK. ## Working principles - **Reliability over heroics:** if recovery depends on one person remembering the magic command, the system is not finished. - **Signal over noise:** more telemetry is not automatically better; the useful signal is the one that changes a decision. - **Automation with guardrails:** automate repeatable work while keeping the blast radius visible and the failure mode understandable. - **Security as architecture:** secure defaults belong in the platform and delivery path, not in a last-minute checklist. ## Approach 1. Understand the problem: map dependencies, failure modes, operational friction and real user impact. 2. Stabilize the system: remove fragile operational paths and make failure behavior predictable. 3. Automate the repeatable: turn recurring operational work into safe, observable workflows. 4. Engineer the prevention: fix the underlying system instead of repeatedly treating the symptom. ## Stack AWS, EKS, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, Helm, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, Linux, Vault and Cloudflare. ## FAQ ### What does Puskar Trital do? Puskar Trital is a site reliability, DevOps and DevSecOps engineer. He designs, operates and secures cloud platforms on AWS and Kubernetes, and connects delivery automation, observability and incident response into one reliable operating model. ### What kinds of problems does he take on? The work starts with a concrete operational problem: a fragile platform, manual delivery, noisy alerts, risky changes, unclear incident response or security gaps. The goal is a system that is easier to understand, safer to change and calmer to operate. ### Which platforms and tools does he work with? AWS and EKS, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, Ansible, Helm, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, Linux, Vault and Cloudflare, alongside the delivery and security practices that make them usable in production. ### How does he approach reliability? He starts by understanding dependencies, failure modes and real user impact, then stabilizes the fragile paths, automates the repeatable work and engineers prevention into the system. ### Where is he based, and does he work remotely? Puskar is based in Nepal (UTC+5:45) and works with distributed teams globally. He has 8+ years of experience and 200+ projects delivered. ### Does he work alongside an existing team? Yes. Engagements are designed to work with the team that owns the system, not around it. Documentation, guardrails and automation should leave the team able to operate and evolve the platform after the engagement. ### How can I start a conversation or get his CV?
