I am

I design and operate reliable platforms from physical data center and SAN to Kubernetes, observability, IaC, and production runbooks. 5 years of solo operations for my own HPE-based data center.

Work approach

Architecture, operations, automation

My approach starts with risks and operating model, then turns into a reproducible platform: infrastructure as code, clear runbooks, observability, backup/DR, and a safe path for change.

Systems architectureConnect hardware, network, storage, Kubernetes, and operations into a coherent platform.
ReliabilityDesign for failures, recovery, metrics, alerts, and controlled maintenance.
AutomationMove repeatable work into IaC, pipelines, and reproducible procedures.
OwnershipOwn the result from diagnosis to production and documentation.
