Infrastructure and distributed-systems engineer. This page is a descent: from the nebula where I started to the ocean floor.

Founding engineer at Vybers. I took a venture-backed startup from an empty GCP organization to public production launch, as sole owner of the Terraform-managed cloud infrastructure, the backend services, and the GPU and geospatial platforms.
Before that, I built cloud-native microservices in Go and .NET at Epic Systems and ran production on-call for a platform serving 200+ health systems.

Python control plane for multimodal AI inference on GPU capacity: job queueing, placement, lease-based failure recovery, idle spin-down, and cordon-and-drain rollouts. Cut cold starts by ~75%.
PostgreSQL/PostGIS platform serving canonical places, photos, and boundary geometry worldwide; DuckDB-based ingestion at planet scale, with hourly self-healing reconciliation.
Render to GCP/Kubernetes, Python to Node.js, and NestJS built-in TCP to gRPC with shared Protobuf contracts and a CI guard against regressions, delivered while the product kept shipping.
Custom VPCs, private GKE, service mesh, three-tier Cilium egress policy, keyless CI/CD with Workload Identity Federation, and Prometheus/Grafana observability, from an empty organization to public launch.
