Work Experience

• Platform Engineer,  Mindcurv

  I design and implement robust CI/CD and DevSecOps processes to optimize development workflows and infrastructure automation. My primary focus has been improving automation processes and enhancing the developer experience (DevEx) by implementing tools, metrics, methodologies, and processes that simplify their daily work.

  In this role, I have designed the entire CI/CD and DevSecOps pipeline for a large-scale e-commerce platform with over 50 microservices running on Kubernetes. This implementation has been a success, achieving a high level of developer satisfaction by freeing them from manual deployment and security tasks, allowing them to focus on coding and delivering features faster. The pipeline includes:

  • ✅ Build & Versioning: Compilation (Maven, Gradle, Node) and automated version control.
  • 🔒 Security & Compliance: Static analysis (SAST), secret detection, vulnerability scanning, and container image security checks.
  • 🧪 Testing: Integration of unit tests, end-to-end (E2E) tests, and contract testing with PACT.
  • 📦 Containerization & Deployment: Dockerization, Helm/Kustomize templating, and GitOps-based deployments using ArgoCD.
  • 📊 Monitoring & Observability: Integration with Prometheus for metrics storage and visualization in Grafana.
  • 🌐 API Gateway Configuration: Automated setup of Anypoint Flex-Gateway.

  
  

  Additionally, I support development teams by optimizing and troubleshooting Kubernetes environments, mentoring engineers, and conducting workshops on DevOps best practices.

  Technologies & Tools:

  • CI/CD tools: GitLab CI, GitHub
  • Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes
  • Configuration Management: Helm, Kustomize, KPT, ArgoCD
  • Cloud: GCP, AWS
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Terraform
  • Monitoring & Observability: Prometheus, Grafana
  • Security & Identity Management: Keycloak

• Software Engineer,  Solera

  I worked on a backend architecture with more than a dozen microservices powering Solera insurance tools and a mobile application for a well-known truck company.

  👨‍💻 Key Responsibilities:

  • Developed new features and maintained existing components.
  • Fixed bugs and improved performance.
  • Enhanced monitoring and observability across services.
