About Me
Who I Am
I'm a DevOps & Cloud Engineer with a passion for building resilient, scalable systems. I help teams move faster and ship more reliably by automating infrastructure, optimizing CI/CD pipelines, and adopting cloud-native practices.
My experience spans AWS, GCP, and Azure, with deep expertise in containerization and orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes. I believe in infrastructure as code, GitOps workflows, and the power of observability.
When I'm not architecting cloud solutions, I'm contributing to open source, writing about DevOps practices, or exploring new tools in the cloud-native ecosystem.

Projects
What I've Built
Open-source tools, templates, and infrastructure projects.
Homelab Infrastructure
A 3-node Proxmox cluster running K3s, Prometheus/Grafana, GitLab, and 30+ self-hosted services — where every production skill was first broken and fixed before it ever touched a real deployment.
GitOps Platform with ArgoCD
A production-grade GitOps platform built on ArgoCD with multi-environment promotion, automated rollbacks, Slack notifications, and compliance guardrails.
Multi-Cloud IaC Template Library
A comprehensive Terraform module library covering AWS, GCP, and Azure — VPCs, managed Kubernetes clusters, RDS, and load balancers with full automated test coverage and CI/CD.
Observability Stack for Kubernetes
A complete observability platform built on Kubernetes using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Tempo — deployed via Helm with pre-built dashboards, SLO-aligned alerting rules, and distributed tracing.
Reusable CI/CD Workflows
A library of reusable GitHub Actions workflows for Docker build & push, Terraform plan/apply, Trivy vulnerability scanning, and automated versioned releases.
Zero-Downtime Deployment CLI
A Go-based CLI tool automating blue-green and canary deployments on Kubernetes with automatic health checks, traffic shifting, and auto-rollback on failure.
Homelab Infrastructure
My Lab, My Playground
A self-hosted infrastructure lab where I experiment with new tools, run personal services, and break things so production doesn't have to.

Why It Matters
This lab is where theory meets practice. Every tool on my resume — Kubernetes, Terraform, Prometheus, GitOps — was first deployed, broken, fixed, and optimized here before ever touching production. It's also where I run the personal services my family relies on, so maintenance discipline comes naturally.
