About Me

I'm a backend engineer transitioning into Platform Engineering, with a focus on building reliable, scalable cloud-native systems that improve developer experience and operational excellence.

My Journey

I started as a self-taught backend developer, diving deep into Go and microservices architecture. At Clubhub, I've worked on search systems, payment workflows, and observability tooling, always with an eye toward scalability and maintainability.

What drives me now is the bigger picture: how do we build platforms that make developers more productive? How do we ensure reliability at scale? How do we make infrastructure invisible yet powerful?

Platform Engineering combines my love for infrastructure, automation, and developer experience. It's about creating the foundation that enables teams to ship faster, safer, and with confidence.

Technical Stack

Languages & Frameworks

  • Go — Primary language (Gin, Echo, standard lib)
  • HCL — Terraform configurations
  • Bash/Shell — Automation scripting

Cloud & Infrastructure

  • AWS — EC2, S3, IAM, VPC, Lambda
  • Kubernetes — Deployment, scaling, operators
  • Docker — Containerization, multi-stage builds
  • Terraform — IaC for provisioning
  • Helm — Kubernetes package management

Observability & Monitoring

  • OpenTelemetry — Distributed tracing
  • Honeycomb — Observability platform
  • Grafana — Metrics visualization
  • Prometheus — Metrics collection

Architecture & Tools

  • Hexagonal Architecture — Clean separation
  • Event-Driven — Async microservices
  • Temporal.io — Workflow orchestration
  • PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, Redis — Data stores
  • GitHub Actions, GitLab CI — CI/CD

Current Focus

  • Platform Engineering principles: Building internal developer platforms, self-service infrastructure, and improving developer experience
  • Kubernetes operators: Extending K8s with custom resources and controllers
  • Service mesh architectures: Exploring Istio and Linkerd for advanced traffic management
  • Reliability engineering: SLOs, error budgets, and incident response automation
  • Infrastructure as Code patterns: Reusable modules, testing strategies, and best practices
