When he joined Limendo, the DevOps function was almost a blank slate. There were no established processes and no mature infrastructure. The expectation was simple and demanding.
Fix what is broken. Build what is missing. Make systems reliable.
He took ownership from day one and began shaping the infrastructure layer by layer across Azure, application deployments, ERP servers, automation, monitoring, and security. His fingerprints are now on almost every operational system at Limendo.
Transforming Infrastructure Through Freedom
One of the biggest technical hurdles he handled involved a major client project where the architecture delivered and the architecture expected were almost complete opposites. Days before going live, the client wanted several sensitive components hidden from public exposure.
It was a structural mismatch that could have derailed the release.
Srirangam rearchitected core components, reorganized servers, altered exposure settings, retested the entire chain, and aligned the new setup with both technical requirements and client expectations. He completed the turnaround in three days under high pressure.
The solution worked seamlessly, and it reinforced something important internally.
He is someone who can be trusted to handle the hardest problems.
Driving Down Costs With Smarter Infrastructure
Another major contribution was reducing Azure infrastructure costs dramatically. Monthly expenses dropped from approximately 8000 euros to around 4500 euros.
He achieved this by:
- Rebuilding and right-sizing the infrastructure
- Removing unnecessary and idle resources
- Leveraging new Azure credits intelligently
- Using better subscriptions where possible
- Continuously monitoring usage patterns
The cost curve stabilized and remained consistent. This was one of the most impactful operational improvements within the company.
Mastering the Complexity of Kubernetes
Limendo’s internal products rely heavily on Kubernetes. Anyone in DevOps understands the depth and difficulty of that ecosystem. It is not a tool, it is an ocean.
Setting up and maintaining Kubernetes meant ensuring continuous uptime, instant resource scaling, and self-healing architecture. Troubleshooting it required experience, intuition, and patience.
Today, the entire platform runs smoothly because he put in the effort to configure and stabilize it from the ground up.
The Person Behind the Systems
For someone handling this level of complexity, his motivation is surprisingly straightforward.
He loves his work.
Fully.
Naturally.
Consistently.
If someone reaches out at 1 AM, he responds. Not because he is obligated, but because he genuinely enjoys the craft. Outside work, he relaxes with PS5, mountain trips, beaches in Odisha, and time with friends, but his curiosity for technology stays constant.
For him, it is not about the company he works for.
It is about the work itself.
Where Culture Meets Ownership
This is the part of his story that defines Limendo.
The culture here gives freedom.
Real freedom.
Not the corporate version of it.
No rigid hierarchy.
Direct access to leadership.
Flexibility to experiment.
Ownership without micromanagement.
A genuine trust that you will do the right thing.
When he joined, DevOps needed direction. Instead of restricting him with layers of approvals, Limendo handed him complete ownership and let him build. It gave him room to experiment, restructure, redesign, and implement systems that would scale for years.
He could call the CEO directly.
He could rebuild infrastructure without friction.
He could shape the operational backbone of the company.
Limendo’s blend of Indian execution and European openness created exactly the kind of environment where someone like him can thrive.
Looking Ahead
With more projects, growing infrastructure demands, and expansion into cloud capabilities, the next phase of DevOps at Limendo will be even bigger. Srirangam is preparing for that shift — hiring, scaling, and strengthening systems for future growth.
His journey reflects the core of Limendo’s culture.
People own what they build.
People grow because they are trusted.
And the company grows because its people take responsibility without being asked.
Srirangam is one of the clearest examples of that principle in action.
