Hi, I'm Arjun 👋

Full Stack Developer · Cloud & DevOps · AI Integration

I build web applications, cloud infrastructure, and automation systems with a focus on practical engineering, deployment, and reliability.

Currently exploring the intersection of Full Stack Development, AWS/DevOps, and AI-powered applications.


🧭 What I'm Building

I'm currently focused on becoming a stronger production-oriented engineer rather than just learning individual technologies.

🚀 Featured Projects

🛡️ Cloud Threat Detection & Automated Incident Response

An event-driven AWS security system that detects suspicious cloud activity and automatically responds to selected threats.

AWS: CloudTrail · CloudWatch · EventBridge · Lambda · SNS · S3 · DynamoDB

Highlights

  • Rule-based cloud threat detection
  • Multiple severity levels
  • Automated incident response
  • Security event storage
  • Event-driven architecture
  • AWS-native serverless workflow

Turning cloud security events into automated detection and response.


☁️ AWS Golden AMI & Auto-Recovery System

A hands-on AWS infrastructure project focused on machine recovery, automation and operational resilience.

AWS: EC2 · Launch Templates · EBS · SSM · CloudWatch · IAM

Highlights

  • Golden AMI based recovery
  • EC2 automation using AWS CLI
  • IMDSv2
  • EBS snapshots
  • Launch Templates
  • Automated recovery workflow
  • Recovery-time measurement

Built to understand what happens when infrastructure fails — and how to recover it.

🏗️ Engineering Interests

I'm particularly interested in how software moves from code → infrastructure → production.

Areas I'm actively learning:

  • Infrastructure as Code
  • CI/CD architecture
  • Containerization
  • Linux administration
  • Cloud networking
  • AWS architecture
  • Observability
  • Security automation
  • System design
  • AI-assisted developer workflows

🤖 AI & RAG

I'm exploring AI primarily from an application engineering perspective.

Rather than focusing only on model training, I'm interested in how AI can become part of real software systems.

Exploring

  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation
  • Agentic workflows
  • Context engineering
  • Local LLMs with Ollama
  • Embeddings & vector similarity
  • AI-powered REST APIs
  • Tool-using agents
  • AI automation
  • Developer productivity workflows

My goal:

Build systems where AI is a useful engineering component, not just a chatbot.

🧪 Engineering Philosophy

I like learning by building and troubleshooting.

Instead of stopping at:

"I know how Docker works."

I want to reach:

"I can diagnose why a container failed in production."

Instead of:

"I know AWS services."

I want to understand:

"How do these services work together to build a reliable system?"

And instead of:

"I can call an LLM API."

I want to build:

"A useful software system where AI solves a real part of the workflow."
