Hi, I’mJeeva
Balakrishnan.
I connect cloud architecture with hands-on platform work. My focus is secure AWS infrastructure, careful Terraform changes and systems teams can operate.

01 / PROFILE
About me Beyond the infrastructure.
Understand the system.
Make the trade-offs clear.
Build with intention.
I’m working towards Solutions Architect and Platform Engineer opportunities. I enjoy understanding how systems fit together, making trade-offs explicit and reviewing changes before they reach an environment. Alongside cloud and platform work, I’m developing my AI infrastructure practice through projects.
