Infra that
actually ships.

I'm a Computer Science student at Bennett University with a strong focus on DevOps, cloud infrastructure, and backend systems. My work revolves around building reliable deployment pipelines, containerized applications, and infrastructure automation.

I enjoy building and deploying real world backend and cloud native systems. My work focuses on Spring Boot, Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, Terraform, AWS, and GitOps practices with ArgoCD

I design systems the way infrastructure should be: reproducible, observable, and built for the day something goes wrong. Currently exploring how production-grade platforms are architected, deployed, and scaled.

Engineering, auf Deutsch

Bauen. Automatisieren. Bereitstellen. Skalieren.
So entstehen zuverlässige Systeme.
