About Saqab

Having worked within a consulting firm for 7 years for about ten clients, I am looking for opportunities in **API Management**, **DevOps**, and **monitoring & alerting**.

I have built solid expertise in API Management through my certifications (WSO2, Apigee, Gravitee Mulesoft) and very enriching assignments where I was responsible for training teams, setting up the technical foundation, establishing the platform & CI/CD jobs, and implementing monitoring and alerting tools for these platforms.

I have been involved in setting up & migrating APIM foundations in various assignments, including:
2019 - Setting up a WSO2 2.2 foundation (product installation, API creation, CI/CD, consumer support)
2020 - Migration of a WSO2 2.2 foundation to WSO2 4.1 (API & Apps migration scripts, CI/CD redesign, performance testing, product installation on Docker swarm)
2023 - Setting up an APIM & AM foundation based on Gravitee 3 installed on-premise
2024 - Setting up an application foundation including WSO2 AM & MI deployed on Kubernetes
2024 - Migration from WSO2 4.1 to Apigee Public Cloud (API & Apps migration scripts, CI/CD)
2024/2025 - Ongoing migration from WSO2 4.1 to WSO2 4.4

I have also been involved in DevOps migrations in addition to CI/CD platform RUN:
2019 - [Jenkins, Nexus, SVN] to [Gitea, Jenkins, AWS S3]
2021 - [Gitea, Jenkins, AWS S3] to [Github Enterprise, Jenkins Cloudbees, Artifactory, SonarQube]
2024 - Jenkins to Github Actions

Finally, from a monitoring & alerting perspective:
2020 - Setting up an ELK foundation. Log retrieval, dashboard creation, alerting rule implementation
2024 - Migration from an ELK foundation to Datadog. Log retrieval, dashboard migration, alerting rule migration

I am happy to share my knowledge with the rest of my teams.
