Backend & Platform Engineer | Docker Captain | Building scalable cloud-native systems with Python, Go, Kubernetes & AI workflows

About

I’m a Backend and Platform Engineer focused on cloud-native systems, developer infrastructure, and AI-powered workflows. My journey began with containerizing applications, which quickly evolved into a deep focus on Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, microservices, and scalable backend systems. Over the past few years, I’ve built and optimized systems using Python, Go, FastAPI, React, AWS, and Azure, with a strong emphasis on automation, observability, and platform reliability. As a Docker Captain and active CNCF open-source contributor, I enjoy working at the intersection of engineering, community, and education—building robust systems while also sharing practical insights with developers worldwide. Recently, I’ve been exploring LLM infrastructure, AI workflow automation, and local model orchestration, helping bridge modern AI systems with production-grade platform engineering.
