What I Do
I build platform engineering systems that accelerate software delivery and improve developer experience. My focus areas include:
- Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) - Self-service infrastructure and tooling
- GitOps & Kubernetes - Declarative infrastructure at scale
- Developer Enablement - Reducing friction in the software delivery lifecycle
- Reliability Engineering - SLOs, observability, and incident management
How I Lead
I’m a player-coach engineering leader who believes in:
- Practical systems thinking - Solving root causes, not symptoms
- Developer-first design - Building tools developers actually want to use
- Measurable outcomes - DX metrics, deployment frequency, lead time
- AI enablement - Integrating AI tools into platform engineering workflows
Proven Outcomes
- Led GitOps platform adoption enabling +25% deployment frequency
- Orchestrated GCP → AWS migration delivering ~$4.5M/year cloud cost savings
- Championed AI adoption initiatives including enablement workshops and internal hackathons
- Built CI/CD pipelines supporting hundreds of microservices across multi-cluster Kubernetes environments
What I’m Exploring
- AI-powered developer tools and platform engineering workflows
- Developer experience (DX) measurement frameworks
- Cost optimization strategies for cloud-native platforms
- Practical GitOps patterns for platform teams
Personal-Professional
Outside of work, I maintain a homelab for experimenting with infrastructure patterns, use Obsidian for knowledge management, and write practical tech notes on this blog.
