Thanks for stopping by. I'm a Platform Engineer passionate about Red Hat technologies, OpenShift, Kubernetes, and enterprise automation using Ansible Automation Platform. I enjoy helping organizations automate infrastructure, simplify operations, and build scalable enterprise platforms.
I have over six years of experience working with Red Hat technologies, OpenShift, Linux, and enterprise infrastructure.
My early career focused on designing, deploying and operating OpenShift platforms for enterprise customers.
During the last two years, I've shifted my primary focus toward Ansible Automation Platform, building automation solutions for banking and enterprise customers.
I previously worked in Singapore for around 1.5 years and currently live in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
