About

Mission-driven full stack developer turned Devops Engineer with a passion.

Hi my name is Nishant Nair I am a Staff Enginner from Pune India who loves to write software to build great products and help businesses succeed with their goals. Although my professional path has taken many twists and turns — from Support Engineer and Bike lover, to employee of the year at a non-profit, to small business owner and entrepreneur — I've never stopped engaging my passion to help others and solve problems.

As a web developer, I enjoy using my obsessive attention to detail, my unequivocal love for making things, and my mission-driven work ethic to literally change the world. That's why I’m excited to make a big impact at a high growth company.

My journey has taught me the importance of continuous improvement and the power of embracing change. Whether it's automating infrastructure deployments with tools like Terraform and Ansible, implementing CI/CD pipelines to automate testing and deployment processes, or ensuring security and compliance through robust monitoring and logging practices, I'm always eager to stay at the forefront of technology and innovation.

I want to make things that make a difference.
