Welcome! I am an engineer with a passion for enterprise Linux architecture, cloud infrastructure, systems engineering, and developer productivity tooling. Here you will find information about projects I'm working on, schematics, infrastructure sandbox experiments, and eventually I hope to add system administration guides.
Core Engineering Focus
Linux & Systems
Enterprise Linux operations across Red Hat, SUSE, and Debian families (and their derivatives), covering system administration, automation scripting, security hardening, and performance monitoring.
Software & DX
Developer experience tooling, automated CI/CD pipelines, robust Bash and shell scripting for workflow automation, and Python for systems and software development.
Cloud & Architecture
Designing resilient, cost-conscious solutions across Google Cloud. Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, containerised services, and edge delivery.
Featured Projects
Cloud Sandbox ↗
Ephemeral cloud infrastructure and sandboxed environments for rapid experimentation, architecture prototyping, and automated provisioning.
Fedora Linux Administration ↗
Operational playbooks, hardening configurations, and system administration guides for production and workstation Linux environments.
Developer Workflows (dx-scripts) ↗
Curated automation scripts, developer productivity utilities, and workstation configuration management.
