What I do

Platforms teams can rely on.

Platform engineering

Kubernetes platforms across multi-cloud environments, designed with GitOps and automation at the core.

Event streaming

Apache Kafka on Kubernetes with Strimzi, and event-driven architectures that move data reliably between systems, at scale.

AI infrastructure

Platforms for AI workloads on Kubernetes: GPU scheduling, model serving and the streaming pipelines that feed models in real time.

Reliability

SRE practice: observability, scalability and operational excellence, following modern DevOps principles.

Open source

Strimzi plugin for Headlamp.

Built and maintained by me: a plugin that brings Strimzi-managed Apache Kafka clusters, topics and users into Headlamp, the CNCF Kubernetes UI.
