Hi 👋 I'm Tirush Venamadala, a Platform, DevOps, and Cloud Engineer at Fox, based in Bangalore. For 6+ years my job has been simple to say and hard to do: make production boring.

I build the layer under the product: infrastructure as code across AWS and GCP, CI/CD that ships without ceremony, and monitoring you can actually act on. I'd rather ship reusable modules than one-offs, so the next team starts three steps ahead. I also own the question most teams avoid: what does all of this cost? Cloud cost engineering is a discipline of its own, one that runs from slashing an Elasticsearch bill by 90% to building cost pipelines that span three clouds.

These days I'm pointing agents at the infrastructure itself: pipelines that read their own CI failures, retrieval over internal tooling, eval loops where a model grades its own output. Data gets the same treatment. On Databricks, my dbt pipelines are written less like scripts and more like products, versioned and tested before anyone builds a dashboard on top.
