Strategic Platform Engineer focused on scalable infrastructure and cost-efficient operations
I specialize in architecting high-efficiency, cloud-native infrastructure with a focus on high availability and automated operations. My approach combines 'Infrastructure as Code' with FinOps principles, ensuring that cluster resources are versioned, automated, and aggressively optimized for cost-efficiency.
Currently, I operate a self-managed, multi-node Kubernetes infrastructure that mirrors enterprise-grade environments. By implementing Rook-Ceph for distributed storage, ArgoCD for GitOps workflows, and a full Prometheus/Grafana stack for observability, I ensure that applications are not just production-ready, but aggressively cost-optimized and resilient.
My background in commercial operations and entrepreneurship gives me a unique edge: I don't just build for the sake of technology; I architect systems that guarantee 99.9% availability while maximizing ROI on underlying hardware
