// 01 — About

Building systems that
just work.

Hey, I'm Michael.

I'm a DevOps Engineer working at the intersection of software development and operations. My job is to make sure that the path from code to production is fast, automated, and bulletproof.

I've built CI/CD pipelines, owned monitoring platforms, automated infrastructure provisioning, and driven engineering best practices across large cross-functional teams. The best DevOps work is invisible — when systems just work, the engineers building them can stay focused on what matters.

Outside of work I build side projects — IoT monitoring with Raspberry Pi and Zabbix, home automation via MQTT and Home Assistant, pixel-sorting art, and deployment tooling I wish existed.

Automation First
If something runs more than twice, it gets automated. CI/CD, provisioning, deployment, cleanup — all of it.
📊
Observability Obsessed
Zabbix, Grafana, custom dashboards. If it's running in production, it's being watched in real-time.
☁️
Multi-Cloud
Hands-on experience across AWS and GCP — provisioning, scaling, and managing cloud infrastructure at enterprise scale.
