varkey is an independent SRE, DevOps & Platform Engineering practice. I help engineering teams build resilient infrastructure, automate the toil out of day-to-day operations, and ship with confidence — without growing headcount.
Engagements range from a focused audit to embedded, ongoing support — scoped to what your team actually needs next.
Turning uptime from a guess into a discipline — instrumented, measured, and owned by the team.
Shorter, safer paths from commit to production, with infrastructure that's reproducible by design.
Internal platforms that let product teams self-serve infrastructure, safely and consistently.
A few principles that shape every engagement, regardless of scope.
The simplest system that meets the reliability bar you actually need — not the most impressive one.
Runbooks, diagrams and decision records are part of the deliverable, not an afterthought.
Your team can run and extend what's built without me — knowledge transfer is built into the plan.
Changes are grounded in metrics — latency, error rate, deploy frequency — not intuition alone.
Whether it's a one-off audit, help standing up a platform, or ongoing SRE support — write in with a short note on what you're working with and what's not working yet.
