LTIMindtree
Software Engineer — Cloud Adoption & Platform Enablement · Bengaluru, India · Apr 2018 – Nov 2021
Building internal cloud capability and client-facing enablement tools that helped a global IT services firm demonstrate and deliver cloud adoption at scale.
Business Context
LTIMindtree (then Larsen & Toubro Infotech) was growing its cloud practice and needed to both deliver cloud adoption projects for clients and build internal tools that showcased technical capabilities. Clients including Parexel, Regeneron, and Veolia Water needed cloud migration support and operational cloud delivery.
The Challenge
The cloud practice needed a way to communicate technical capabilities clearly to clients and prospects — while also delivering real cloud adoption work. Internal tooling was limited, and there was no centralised way to showcase the team's cloud skills and POC work.
Approach & Architecture
Supported Azure delivery, ETL workloads, and security controls for client engagements. Built an internal web portal using PHP to showcase the cloud practice's capabilities, case studies, and technical skills to internal stakeholders and clients. Used Terraform to build POCs that demonstrated cloud infrastructure patterns and accelerated client conversations. Contributed to cloud migration strategies and lift-and-shift planning.
Architecture notes
Internal capability portal built in PHP, hosted on Azure, serving as a living showcase of the cloud practice's work. Terraform-based POC environments used to demonstrate Azure infrastructure patterns to clients. Azure DevOps pipelines for CI/CD on client delivery projects.

Lessons Learned
Internal tooling that makes a team's work visible is often undervalued — but it directly influences how clients and leadership perceive capability. Engineering communication is a real skill.
