Alok

Hi, I’m Alok

I am a Solution Architect with deep, hands-on experience across full-stack engineering, cloud architecture, DevOps, and system design. I have grown from an individual contributor into a technical leader who architects, builds, reviews, and scales production-grade systems.

My work focuses on translating business problems into pragmatic, scalable, and cost-efficient technical solutions. I believe strong architecture is driven by clarity, resilience, and long-term maintainability—not unnecessary complexity.

What I Do

• Architect and deliver end-to-end systems spanning frontend, backend, infrastructure, and integrations
• Design cloud-native architectures with a focus on reliability, security, and cost optimization
• Lead system design discussions, estimations, and architectural decision-making
• Mentor engineers and collaborate closely with product, UX, and business stakeholders

Core Expertise

• Architecture & System Design — Modular, scalable, domain-driven systems
• Cloud & DevOps — AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD
• Backend Engineering — .NET, Node.js, background workers, integrations
• Frontend Engineering — React.js, performance-focused UI engineering
• Data & Persistence — RDBMS, graph databases, migrations, data integrity
• Cost Optimization — Practical trade-offs over theoretical best practices

Certifications

• AWS Partner Certified — AWS cloud fundamentals, partner-led architectures
• ZEDEDA Certified Edge Computing Associate — Edge orchestration and lifecycle management
• Neo4j Professional Certified — Graph data modeling and Cypher query expertise

Writing & Knowledge Sharing

I write about real-world engineering problems, architecture decisions, and lessons learned while building systems.

Philosophy

“Making mistakes is better than faking perfection.”

I value transparency, thoughtful experimentation, and learning through execution. Real systems improve through iteration—not theory alone.
