Sokratis Kapetaneas
@sokratiskapetaneas
I build reliable multi-cloud Kubernetes platforms, automate delivery, and reduce infrastructure costs.
GreeceWhat I'm looking for
I've led cloud and platform engineering for KX, Ticketmaster, AsianLogic, and independent clients, designing and operating production infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
I build and run Kubernetes platforms on EKS, GKE, and AKS; create reusable Terraform modules; and implement GitOps delivery with ArgoCD, Helm, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Jenkins. My work includes zero-downtime Cloud Run-to-GKE migrations, multi-environment cloud platforms, bare-metal Kubernetes operations, and monitoring stacks using Prometheus, Loki, Grafana, and Elasticsearch.
I've improved reliability, strengthened security and network control, and reduced AWS spend by approximately 50% through infrastructure and network architecture optimisation. I'm open to remote platform and cloud infrastructure roles across the EU and UK.
