Cloud Native Platform Engineer · Open Source Engineer · Adjunct Professor

I am a Cloud Native Platform Engineer with 20+ years of IT experience, focused on Kubernetes, Platform Engineering, AI/Data Platform, DevOps, and Cloud Native Infrastructure.

I design and build reliable, developer-friendly platforms that reduce operational complexity and enable engineers to focus on delivering products.

My engineering approach emphasizes a continuous loop of problem definition → design → implementation → validation → incident analysis → regression testing → automation → documentation.

I actively apply this approach to open-source projects focused on Kubernetes and Cloud Native infrastructure.

🚀 Selected Open Source Projects

OpenForge

Open Source Project Blueprint & Engineering Standards

A reusable engineering foundation, standards, templates, and portfolio governance for creating, evolving, deploying, and maintaining high-quality OSS projects.

Siqoq

Simulation-first Infrastructure for Physical AI

An open-source playground that starts with simulation and virtual sensors, then moves the same AI workloads to cameras, edge devices, and robots.

Kube Ready Box

Kubernetes-Ready Ubuntu Vagrant Boxes

Automated multi-architecture Ubuntu Vagrant boxes with Kubernetes prerequisites, OS-level optimizations, and ext4/XFS filesystem variants.

Narwhal

Kubernetes Internal Developer Platform (IDP)

Reproducible Kubernetes IDP integrating GitOps, IAM, networking, observability, security, storage, backup, and automated regression validation across ARM64/AMD64, cloud, on-premises, and air-gapped environments.

Narwhal Portal

Management Portal for the Narwhal IDP

A Next.js management portal for dashboard, onboarding, application catalog, nodes, cost, compliance, security, governance, and day-2 operations.

NFS Quota Agent

Filesystem Quotas for Kubernetes NFS PersistentVolumes

An agent that enforces project quotas for NFS-backed PVs on XFS, ext4, and Btrfs filesystems.

Beluga

Self-hosted Kubernetes Data Platform

A local VM-based data platform deployed with Vagrant, Helm, and ArgoCD: Kafka/CDC, Flink, Iceberg, Trino/Superset, and Airflow.

Beluga Manager

Unified Control Plane for the Beluga Data Platform

A management console that correlates component APIs into platform-level concepts such as pipelines, data assets, services, and operations.

LDAPium

Maintained OpenLDAP Stack for Kubernetes

An OpenLDAP server image compiled from upstream source, a management UI, and a Helm chart for deploying LDAP on Kubernetes.

🔬 Engineering Philosophy

OSS is not only about writing code. It is about building a system that can be installed, operated, verified, evolved, and trusted.

I believe the value of an open-source project is not measured only by lines of code or commit counts.

It is about the complete engineering loop:

  • Define the problem clearly
  • Make it work in a real environment
  • Record failures and incidents
  • Analyze root causes
  • Turn lessons into regression tests
  • Automate repeatable operations
  • Document the project so others can use it

🤖 AI-assisted Engineering

I actively use AI-assisted engineering tools such as Claude Code for development, testing, troubleshooting, documentation, and open-source maintenance.

I am particularly interested not simply in AI-generated code, but in how AI can be integrated into the engineering loop while improving both quality and productivity.
