How standardizing GitOps delivery across a 100+ microservice estate on EKS removed release friction without pausing feature work.
Professional Story
My career started in core software engineering: building IPTV delivery systems, telecom integration adapters and high-throughput messaging services that had to stay online at national scale.
That engineering foundation became the basis for systems architecture work, where I moved from writing services to defining how entire platforms are decomposed, deployed, observed and secured.
Today I work inside a Cloud Center of Excellence, setting cloud architecture standards, landing zone blueprints, Infrastructure as Code conventions and FinOps guardrails that multiple product organizations build on.
