01 — About

Cloud Architect.
Pre-Sales Specialist.

I'm Nishant Kumar Rishav, an Associate Solution Architect at Workmates Core2Cloud Pvt Ltd in Kolkata. I specialise in designing multi-tier, highly-available AWS architectures for industries ranging from FinTech to Healthcare.

My work spans the full cloud engineering spectrum — from Infrastructure as Code with Terraform & CloudFormation, Docker & Kubernetes containerisation, to pre-sales solutioning and building Generative AI-powered data visualisation tools for enterprise clients.

I hold an MCA from KIIT Bhubaneswar (8.24 CGPA) and am driven by crafting elegant, cost-optimised solutions that solve real business problems at scale.
