SRE and Platform Engineer. I make sure production stays reliable – observability, incident response, capacity planning – and I build the tooling that lets development teams ship without depending on anyone: CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure abstractions, self-service platforms.
Before platform engineering, I spent 20 years in databases – Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch. Different tools, same trade-offs. That background shapes how I approach infrastructure: I care more about what the data is doing than about uptime dashboards.
Industrial Engineering background – automation and control systems. Not the obvious path to infrastructure, but the fundamentals transfer well: feedback loops, process control, and designing systems that run without constant intervention.

How I Work #
Everything as code, everything reviewed. Infrastructure, configuration, deployments – versioned and deployed through CI/CD. Trunk-based development keeps changes small and reversible.
What I watch closest: throughput, freshness, error rates, pipeline health. Well-chosen SLIs catch problems before users do.
Cloud spend is an operational metric, not a finance afterthought. Most performance problems I’ve solved came down to better indexing or data modeling, not more hardware.
A well-built platform shouldn’t need heroes. Common failures fix themselves, documentation covers the rest. On-call since 2009, with a strong culture of blameless postmortems and root cause analysis after every significant incident.
