Senior Specialist @ HCLTech · Founder & Consultant, PBCT
10+ years architecting enterprise Azure cloud infrastructure — delivering high-availability solutions, zero-trust security, and seamless cloud migrations for global organisations.
I am Ankesh Siwach, a Cloud Solution Architect with over 10 years of expertise across Azure, AWS, and IBM Cloud — specialising in cloud infrastructure management, virtualisation platforms (VMware, Hyper-V), and enterprise storage and backup solutions (NetApp, QNAP, Veeam). Primary focus is Microsoft Azure, with hands-on experience across multi-cloud environments. I am also the Founder & Principal Consultant of PinnacleBreeze Cloud Technology (PBCT) — a cloud consulting initiative built on years of enterprise delivery experience.
Currently serving as Senior Specialist at HCLTech, I lead hybrid IT infrastructure design, lifecycle management of cloud services, and enterprise-grade backup and disaster recovery operations. My career spans HCLTech, FlexisIT, Wipro, and Solicon — driving complex cloud migrations and maintaining 99.9%+ uptime for business-critical workloads.
I hold three Microsoft certifications (AZ-104, AZ-140, AZ-800) and am passionate about building scalable, secure, and cost-efficient architectures that let teams focus on innovation rather than infrastructure.

10+ years across HCLTech, Wipro, and global enterprises. Complex multi-cloud environments, solutions that scale — not just prototypes.
Every solution starts with zero-trust principles, RBAC governance, and compliance-ready policies. Security is the foundation, not an afterthought.
Migrated 50+ clients to Azure with minimal downtime. I plan meticulously, execute cleanly, and your business never misses a beat.
I don't just move workloads — I right-size them. Clients consistently see 20–35% reduction in cloud spend through architecture reviews.
I build relationships, not just infrastructure. With 150+ projects delivered, I stay engaged post-delivery to ensure your environment evolves.
