Principal Engineer @ Aivar | Ex-AWS, Ex-VMware

About

Software engineering leader specialising in cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, Kubernetes, and AI platforms. I have built private and public cloud infrastructure services at AWS and VMware, working on complex systems that must remain scalable, reliable, and operationally simple. I am currently focused on building enterprise-grade AIOps and MLOps platforms for managing AI workloads across cloud, on-premises, and heterogeneous compute environments. Alongside my engineering work, I conduct independent research into machine learning, neural networks, self-organising systems, and the computational principles underlying biological intelligence.
