DevOps & Platform Engineering

Infrastructure that lets your team ship daily

I build the platform layer that turns a slow engineering org into a fast one: CI/CD that takes minutes, environments that spin up on demand, observability that catches issues before customers do, and IaC that an auditor can read.

Prefer reading first? See real engagements or read recent insights.

What's Included

  • GitHub Actions or Buildkite CI/CD with parallelism and caching
  • Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and Pulumi
  • Kubernetes (EKS, GKE) and serverless platforms (ECS, Cloud Run, Vercel)
  • Observability stack (Datadog, Grafana, Sentry, OpenTelemetry)
  • Secrets management, KMS, and least-privilege IAM
  • Disaster recovery, backups, and runbook authoring

Ideal For

Who this engagement fits best

  • Engineering orgs where deploys are a Friday-night ritual
  • Series A-C teams formalizing a platform group for the first time
  • Companies preparing for SOC 2 or ISO 27001
  • Teams whose AWS bill has outgrown their understanding of it

Process

How we work together

A structured approach to devops & platform engineering that delivers results.

1

Audit

Pipelines, environments, IaC coverage, observability gaps, on-call pain

2

Plan

Sequence the work so velocity improves every week, not at the end

3

Build

Ship in increments, each one usable on its own

4

Hand Over

Train the team, document the platform, leave them able to run it

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about devops & platform engineering engagements.

Do you do on-call?

I cover on-call during stabilization phases. Long-term, my job is to make your team comfortable owning it.

Terraform or Pulumi?

Terraform for most teams, Pulumi when the team is heavily TypeScript and wants real code in their IaC. Both are fine.

Can you help with FinOps?

Yes, cost reviews are usually part of every engagement. Right-sizing, RIs, and Savings Plans alone often pay for the work.
