About

Building reliable systems

Senior DevOps, SRE and Tech Lead with 9+ years in software engineering, the last 4+ specializing in DevOps and SRE. I design, run and secure production platforms: Kubernetes-based infrastructure, CI/CD and GitOps delivery pipelines, and observability that keeps services reliable and cost-efficient. My software engineering background means I understand the code I ship and operate, and I have led the engineering teams that deliver it.

Recently I have run self-managed Kubernetes across dev, QA, staging and production for ASA's FinTech services, which handle 25M+ requests a day against a 99.8% SLO, with GitOps, Helm-based self-service environments, SLO-aligned alerting and blameless incident reviews. Earlier, at Synesis IT, I launched an Internal Developer Platform (Ansible and Kubernetes) that cut environment provisioning time by 60%+, introduced GitOps delivery that cut release times by over 70%, and built contact center and healthcare platforms with 99.9%+ uptime, the latter serving 20M+ users.

Core stack: Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, GitOps with Argo CD, Ansible, Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, AWS, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Trivy, Bash, Python, Java and Spring Boot. Certified Scrum Master and Scrum Developer, comfortable leading Agile teams and driving delivery velocity.

Currently open to remote opportunities with EU working-hour overlap, and to relocation with visa sponsorship, in Tech Lead, Senior DevOps, or SRE roles.
