Priya Sharma

Priya Sharma is a seasoned cloud solutions architect with 14 years of experience designing and migrating large-scale infrastructure for some of India's fastest-growing fintech companies. Based in Bengaluru, she is widely regarded as one of the most technically rigorous cloud practitioners in the region, known for her ability to balance performance, security, and cost in complex, multi-tenant environments. Her most celebrated project involved leading the end-to-end cloud migration strategy for a fintech platform with 50 million active users — transitioning from a legacy on-premises data center to a hybrid multi-cloud architecture spanning AWS and Azure. The migration was completed in 18 months with zero production downtime, and resulted in a 35% reduction in infrastructure costs through FinOps governance practices she implemented post-migration. Priya holds AWS Solutions Architect (Professional) and Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) certifications, and has been an AWS Community Builder for three consecutive years. She regularly contributes to the Terraform open-source registry and maintains several widely-used modules for banking-grade security configurations. She is a sought-after speaker at KubeCon APAC and has authored two cloud architecture whitepapers for NASSCOM. Her current work centers on building self-healing infrastructure using AI-driven capacity planning and anomaly detection.
