A LITTLE MORE PERSONAL

Fragments of me.

Outcomes, not just output.

Over 10 years of turning complex problems into systems people can rely on.

HOW I WORK NOW

I used to code.
Now I agentic engineer.

I shape the brief , build orchestration loops and workflows, and review what ships.

Still hands-on. Still accountable.

Presales, leadership & delivery

I lead presales discovery and shape solution proposals, turning complex business requirements into a well-defined scope, user journeys, and a clear project plan , aligning clients, vendors, and engineering teams from the first workshop to go-live.

Presales discovery · solution proposals · scope definition · user journeys · delivery planning

Application & integration

I build React and React Native interfaces, and TypeScript, Python, Java, and Go services, connecting APIs, microservices, and events into systems that work together, backed by PostgreSQL and MongoDB.

Node.js · NATS · RabbitMQ · AI orchestration & agent tools

Cloud & infrastructure

Across AWS, Cloudflare, Hetzner, and Google Cloud, I design and operate infrastructure with Terraform, Pulumi, Alchemy, and Ansible.

Infrastructure as code · configuration management · hybrid & on-premises systems

Containers & delivery

I package services with Docker, orchestrate them on Kubernetes and k3s, and automate delivery with Argo CD for GitOps and GitHub Actions for CI/CD.

Container orchestration · declarative deployments · automated build & release pipelines

Observability

I make production systems easier to understand with Grafana dashboards, Prometheus metrics, Loki logs, and Tempo traces, connecting signals to investigate issues across services.

Metrics · logs · distributed tracing · alerting & production debugging

Identity & security

I build identity into the architecture, connecting FaceTec biometrics and onboarding with access management through OAuth and OIDC, with clear boundaries around sensitive data.

IAM · eKYC/KYB · OCR · NFC/ePassport · certificates · key management · data residency
