Platform Engineering

Crossplane + GitOps powered platform APIs, golden paths, and paved roads that make shipping boring.

Kubernetes at Scale

Multi-cluster (EKS/AKS/Talos), Production Ready, Secure by Default, Cost-Aware, and Developer Friendly.

GitHub Platform & CI/CD

Reusable Actions with OIDC, environment policies, matrices, artifact + release automation at enterprise scale.

Supply Chain Security

CodeQL/secret scanning, SBOM + SLSA provenance, image signing, production ready pipelines and controls.

Policy as Code & Compliance

Kyverno/OPA, CIS/FedRAMP/STIG aligned guardrails, automated evidence, and repeatable change controls.

Observability & SRE

SLOs with metrics/logs/traces (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana) and incident playbooks that reduce MTTR.

IaC & Cloud Automation

Terraform/Ansible with GitOps and drift detection for AWS/Azure; repeatable, cost-aware environments.

Container Hardening

Minimal/CVE-reduced images (Wolfi/apko/melange), reproducible builds, continuous scanning, distroless options.

Edge & DIL Operations

Disconnected/hostile network patterns, resilient delivery, and ops workflows that work off the happy path.

Developer Experience

Docs, workshops, and paved-road UX that drive adoption—golden paths developers choose, not dodge.
