About Me

About Me


For some time now, I've been developing backend software solutions in Python and Go. Most of these systems are deployed on cloud providers like AWS and GCP. Lately, I've shifted my focus to building and maintaining data pipelines, continuous integration workflows, and deployment pipelines—using tools such as Snowflake, GitLab CI, and GitHub.

My journey began in 2019, when I joined a business incubator agency as a web developer supporting incoming start-ups. Pretty soon, I transitioned into a freelance role as a cloud systems administrator for those same customers. This move deepened my understanding of infrastructure, automation, and how to make systems serve growing businesses reliably.

From there, I took on a new challenge: I was brought on as a Solutions Architect apprentice at a newly founded insurance company. There, I sharpened my skills in Python, Go, Docker, and Kubernetes while designing backend systems, container orchestrations, and scalable architectures.

Even when my comfort zone had been backend development, the opportunity to grow into something different arrived when the CTO of the insurance company offered me a path as a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE). This role blends cloud engineering with software-engineering best practices — a perfect way to combine what I knew with what I was excited to learn next.

Currently, I'm still maintaining this role working for a global financial agency where I contribute to the development of one of the core components of our data fabrics and analytics platform. My role involves maintaining deployment packages for the product, ensuring seamless delivery to single-tenant applications across all customers. In this process, I work with a tech stack that includes Terraform, GCP, Jenkins, Go, and Python to ensure smooth and efficient operations.

It began as a homelab experiment and quickly evolved into a 24/7 production environment for creating web applications. It's nothing real fancy, just a small business I run together with some fellow developers. I'm responsible for managing the virtualization platform.

Soon

Godot Tactical Role-Playing Game

Have you ever played Final Fantasy Tactics, XCOM, or Fire Emblem? If so, I've put together a fully functional game template for the Godot Engine, created in collaboration with the community. It's ready to go and designed for easy integration into your projects.
