About


I am an engineer who excels across various roles, from Backend to DevOps. I can work across the stack and see myself as a quick learner, although I prefer certain technologies, I don't limit myself to them.

For an overview of my capabilities, please feel free to visit my blog, review my open source projects and closed source products I've built here, and explore my preferred hardware/software selections here.

Working with the following technologies brings me joy:

  • Terraform/Tanka (Jsonnet)
  • Prometheus/Grafana/Loki/Tempo
  • Kubernetes/Docker
  • Go/Python/Django/Wagtail
  • Github Actions
  • ArgoCD/Flux

I enjoy spending my free time on reading on new infrastructure tooling, Vim hacks/plugins, Linux toolkits and Django/Python plugins.
