I build and troubleshoot cloud-native platforms on OpenShift, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
What I'm looking for
At NextStep IT, I develop and support an internal cloud platform on OpenShift and Kubernetes, diagnosing application and infrastructure incidents through log analysis, node troubleshooting, and structured problem-solving.
I've built VM provisioning with KubeVirt and Terraform, IAM-as-a-Service with dynamic Keycloak realm provisioning, Nginx hosting, an internal image registry, and Knative serverless functions. I also implemented a five-job DevSecOps pipeline with GitHub Actions for secret scanning, vulnerability scanning, container scanning, code quality, and application security testing.
Through my ZeroWaste academic project, I deployed a seven-node OpenStack private cloud with Kubernetes orchestration and Azure integration, plus Prometheus and Grafana monitoring. I'm looking to apply my cloud-native, troubleshooting, and client-server architecture skills in a technical support role.
