DevOps Technical Lead

11+ years building and operating infrastructure at scale.

I work at the intersection of cloud architecture, developer experience, and operational reliability. My focus areas:

  • AWS cloud architecture and multi-account strategy
  • Container orchestration with Kubernetes and ECS
  • Kafka-based event streaming infrastructure
  • Infrastructure as Code: Terraform and CDK8s
  • Platform engineering and internal developer platforms
  • Cloud cost optimization and FinOps practices

Languages I reach for daily: Golang, Python, Bash, Node.js.

This blog is where I document what I learn, what breaks, and what I'd do differently. Topics include DevOps, Platform Engineering, AWS, Kafka, Golang, Python, Bash, and AI in infrastructure.

No fluff. No vendor marketing. Just operational notes from the field.
