Who Am I
Platform Engineer by definition. AI Augmented Human by choice. Kuberenetes Practitioner all the time. With over a decade of Kubernetes orchestration under my belt, and a few more decades in Infrastructure Development, I'm now diving deep into the fascinating world of Agentic AI.
I fell in love with Docker orchestration and Kubernetes for its self-healing, declarative magic ✨ There's something beautiful about infrastructure that thinks for itself. Now I'm taking that philosophy to the next level by building AI agents that can actually operate that infrastructure!
Work-preference: Remote-first companies or distributed engineering teams.
