SRIDHAR RAO SURNER

Dear Hiring Manager,

With over 20 years of experience in high-availability Linux/Unix enterprise environments—predominantly within financial institutions—I bring a deep understanding of infrastructure strategy, risk mitigation, and service excellence. My track record includes leading critical datacenter migrations, cloud transitions, and security integrations, all backed by hands-on engineering and ITIL service governance.

In my current role at Cognizant Technologies supporting BlackRock Singapore, I’ve steered Azure cloud adoption initiatives, spearheaded secure application platform upgrades, and automated release management frameworks. My previous tenures at UBS Investment Bank and Barclays Capital further sharpened my proficiency in Red Hat Linux, Solaris administration, and security tools such as CyberArk PAS and LDAP integrations.

Whether coordinating global change windows, presenting risk reviews in CAB forums, or optimizing patch orchestration across production fleets, I’ve consistently combined technical rigor with collaborative execution. My exposure to Azure, AWS fundamentals, and hybrid migration models aligns well with today’s dynamic infrastructure landscapes.

I’m now seeking senior or middle management opportunities where I can contribute as a service delivery leader, change governance champion, and cloud transition architect. I’m especially enthusiastic about roles involving Red Hat environments, Unix/Linux estates, or broader infrastructure transformation across enterprise platforms.

Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to the opportunity to further discuss how I can contribute to your organization’s infrastructure excellence and digital resilience.

Warm regards,
Sridhar Rao Surner
