About

I am Yadlapalli Sankar Sai Narayana, an AI and Cloud Software Engineer focused on building reliable, production-ready AI systems. My work spans LLM applications, RAG architectures, Kubernetes platforms, observability, and cloud-native infrastructure.

At Yellow.ai, I work on AWS EKS production systems, lead incident response, and develop AI-powered observability tools that help engineers diagnose and resolve issues faster. As a Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) with a B.Tech (Honors) in Information Technology, I am passionate about building scalable, resilient systems that deliver measurable impact.

Education & Work Experience

  1. Experience

    SDE (Infra, DevOps, Cloud, AI & Voice Stack) — Yellow.ai

    Mar 2025 — Present

    Yellow AI (Yellow Messenger), Bangalore — CKA-certified engineer owning AWS EKS operations and an MCP-powered observability platform used daily by engineering.

    Cloud infrastructure & SRE

    • Managed EKS across 3+ environments; upgrades and patching cut deployment failures by ~30%.
    • On-call for 15+ critical incidents; MTTR down ~40% via structured log analysis and remediation.
    • Right-sized workloads for ~25% lower infra overhead; CI/CD on GitHub Actions + Docker accelerated releases ~35%.
    • IAM, cluster RBAC, and routine patching across AWS components.

    AI platform & observability

    • Unified 11 MCP tools into one on-demand diagnostic platform; incident investigation from ~60 min to under 5.
    • LLM layer routes natural-language queries (trace ID, region) to the right tool — ~3 hours/day saved on manual debugging.
    • LangChain orchestration for autonomous RCA on distributed traces; MTTD down ~45%, developer productivity up ~50%.
  2. Education

    Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)

    2025

    Linux Foundation, USA — production cluster admin, troubleshooting, networking, storage, and security for cloud-native workloads.

    • Directly supports EKS ownership at Yellow.ai: upgrades, RBAC, and multi-environment reliability.
  3. Education

    B.Tech Information Technology (Honors)

    Nov 2021 — May 2025
