About

I'm a Computer Science and Engineering graduate with a passion for technology and continuous learning. During my master's degree I balanced part-time work with my studies, and since completing my thesis, I’ve been working full-time in the tech industry. I’m highly motivated and like to challenge myself with complex problems. I have a strong background in cloud computing, DevOps, and infrastructure as code, as well as hands-on experience with backend development using Spring and Quarkus.

2024 - Present

Consultant

In my current role, I primarily focus on the DevOps aspect of our project, utilizing mostly ArgoCD and GitHub Actions. I also took ownership of building and maintaining a monitoring stack for our Kubernetes clusters using tools such as Promtail, Loki and Grafana. Additionally, I sometimes contribute to backend development using Java with Spring.

Junior Consultant

During my part-time, I supported the development of cloud-based solutions. I automated infrastructure deployments using Terraform and integrated CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD. When infrastructure updates were not needed, I focused on backend development with Java (Quarkus).
