SH‑07.0 / SUMMARY

Summary

DevOps / Platform Engineer with a full‑stack foundation (2023–). I build the systems that carry code from commit to production — CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, containerized deployments, and monitoring — and I can read the application running on top of that infrastructure well enough to make better calls about it, not just keep it alive.
