I make deployments boring (in a good way)

DevOps Engineer | Simpl (fintech production) · FreshTray (founder, real ops)

I help teams ship safely, control cloud costs, and avoid preventable outages.

Where I Help

Where I help most

The infrastructure problems I solve repeatedly

Safe, repeatable deployments

Deployments should not depend on timing or luck. I set up pipelines that ship code with predictable outcomes.

  • Automated checks
  • Zero-downtime releases
  • Rollbacks that work

Infrastructure that scales without waste

Cloud costs grow quietly. I design infrastructure that scales only when it needs to.

  • Terraform-managed infrastructure
  • Clear scaling rules
  • Cost visibility by service

Consistent environments from dev to production

Production should behave the same way everywhere.

  • Production-ready Docker setups
  • Environment parity
  • Observable container systems

Monitoring that helps during incidents

Alerts should tell you what broke and what to check first.

  • Fewer alerts
  • Clear ownership
  • Dashboards tied to impact

I automate repeatable work.

Document for maintainability

I document decisions so teams can maintain systems without me.

Let's talk

If something in your infrastructure feels fragile, slow, or more expensive than it should be, send me a short note.
