About

Hi, I’m Mandavi Kumari. I run NextOpsLab.

NextOpsLab is a founder-led cloud engineering firm. I help growing tech teams cut AWS and Azure costs and run Kubernetes reliably, and I do the work myself.

Why NextOpsLab exists

I work hands-on with production infrastructure on AWS and Azure, including Kubernetes on EKS and AKS. Again and again I saw the same pattern: teams growing quickly, cloud bills growing faster, and nobody with the time to read the bill line by line and fix what they found.

Large consultancies can do this work, but the person who sells it is rarely the person who does it. NextOpsLab is the opposite: one engineer, accountable for the result, from the first call to the last change.

I am based in India and work with teams in India and abroad.

What I work with every day

  • AWS
  • Azure
  • Amazon EKS
  • Azure AKS
  • Kubernetes
  • Terraform
  • GitHub Actions
  • Prometheus
  • Grafana
  • OpenTelemetry

How I work

The engineer who audits is the one who implements

No sales layer, no hand-off to juniors. You talk to the person doing the work.

Numbers you can check

Every finding has a monthly value, the effort to fix it and the risk. Nothing on this site is a claim I cannot show you on a call.

Your approval on every change

Read-only access for audits. Production changes only in agreed windows, with a rollback plan.

Built to hand over

Everything lives in your accounts and repositories, documented, so you are never locked in.
