Descripción

I am a Senior Cloud Platform Engineer & Kubernetes Architect, Founder of Antaka Tech, and one of the early Kubestronauts — certified CKS, CKA, and CKAD.

With more than 20 years of hands-on experience, I help companies design, build, and operate cloud-native platforms that are scalable, secure, and developer-friendly.

My approach combines deep technical expertise with calm, clear, human-centered leadership.

I simplify complexity, remove friction, and create platforms that teams love using.

What I Do

I build and modernize cloud-native platforms across Azure, AWS, and hybrid environments, specializing in:

- Kubernetes Architecture & Operations

Designing reliable multi-region AKS/EKS clusters, implementing GitOps, service mesh, network security, and golden paths for development teams.

- Infrastructure as Code & Automation

Delivering secure, fully automated infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, CI/CD pipelines, and policy-as-code.

- Custom Kubernetes Operators (Go / Kubebuilder)

Replacing manual processes with intelligent automation — encoding platform logic into reusable, maintainable operators.

- Technical Leadership

Helping engineering teams adopt modern cloud-native practices with clarity, empathy, and long-term thinking.

What You Can Expect Working With Me

• Clear communication, no drama
• Thoughtful analysis before execution
• Reliable delivery with strong ownership
• Architecture that is elegant, maintainable, and cost-efficient
• A partner who improves your team — not just your systems

🚀 My Mission

To build harmonious cloud platforms that scale globally, empower developers, and bring long-term stability to businesses — while growing Antaka Tech into a home of world-class experts.
