> Kubernetes internals, cloud migrations, multi-cloud CI/CD

*7 years focused experience*

Can navigate Kubernetes source code and understand its architecture. Migrated complex systems across clouds, from Nomad to Kubernetes. Developed flexible CI/CD pipelines that work across multiple clouds, regions, and topologies.

## Highlights

- Navigate Kubernetes source code and understand its internals
- Lead full cloud migrations — cross-cloud and Nomad → Kubernetes
- Build CI/CD pipelines that adapt dynamically to any cloud, region, or topology
- Own the full infrastructure stack — not just the YAML, but the actual operations

## Stack

Kubernetes, Nomad, CI/CD, Multi-cloud, Cloud Migration, Helm, Terraform, Docker

## Kubernetes depth

Kubernetes is not just a deployment target — I understand how it works internally. This means I can debug obscure scheduler behavior, understand what a controller is actually doing, and make informed decisions about resource configuration rather than guessing.

## Migrations

Migrated production systems with real users and real constraints.

- Nomad → Kubernetes migration: zero-downtime, multi-service, multi-team coordination
- Cross-cloud migrations preserving data integrity and minimizing blast radius
- Networking and DNS topology changes across migration boundaries
- Rollback planning and live traffic validation at each stage

## CI/CD

Built pipelines designed to be extended, not just used. The goal: a single pipeline definition that works across any cloud, region, or environment — no forking, no duplication.

- Dynamic environment targeting based on branch, tag, or environment variable
- Multi-cloud deployment steps with environment-specific secret injection
- Parallel deployment strategies across regions with health gate validation
- Rollback automation triggered by metric thresholds post-deploy
