Hello, I’m Nilesh Shah —
I architect resilient cloud & IT infrastructure for modern businesses.
Senior Information Technology Consultant with 25+ years of experience designing, securing and scaling enterprise IT — from datacenter rollouts in Mumbai & Singapore to multi-cloud deployments on AWS, Azure & GCP.
Bridging Technology Strength with Business Outcomes
Two decades of turning complex infrastructure challenges into clean, scalable, secure solutions.
I’m Nilesh Subhash Shah, a Senior IT Consultant currently driving infrastructure strategy at KLOUD Consulting Services. Based in Mumbai, Maharashtra, I work with large global corporations and new-generation technology companies to design IT systems that simply work — quietly, reliably, and at scale.
My career spans hands-on engineering at Fortune Microsystem, operations leadership at Oriensoft & Syndrome Technologies, and global service-provider alliances at XcellHost Cloud Services. Along the way, I’ve migrated datacenters across Singapore, rolled out Cisco UCS + Nexus 9K fabrics, and built end-to-end Brocade + EMC Storage backbones.
I hold a Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics) from Dnyaneshwar Vidyapeeth, Pune, and certifications spanning AWS, Google Cloud, ITIL v3, and VMware.
