Hey everyone! 👋 I've been reading DEV.to for a long time and finally decided to stop lurking and start contributing. So — hi, I'm a DevOps Engineer, and I'm excited to be here!
What I do
I work at the intersection of development and operations — containerizing apps, automating deployments, managing cloud infrastructure, and making sure things don't break in production (most of the time 😅).
My core stack:
🐳 Docker & Kubernetes — containerization and orchestration
☁️ AWS — EKS, ECR, IAM, DynamoDB
🔁 Jenkins — CI/CD pipelines with SonarQube code quality checks
📊 Prometheus & Grafana — monitoring and alerting
What I recently built
My latest project is a production-grade ecommerce platform built entirely on microservices — 15 independent backend services, each with its own database, orchestrated on AWS EKS.
Some highlights:
15 microservices (user, product, cart, order, payment, search, chatbot, and more)
API Gateway handling routing, authentication, and rate limiting
Jenkins pipeline that builds, tests with SonarQube, and deploys all services to EKS automatically
Prometheus + Grafana dashboards for real-time monitoring
Database-per-service pattern for true microservice independence
It was a deep dive into what it actually takes to run a distributed system at scale — and I learned more from debugging it than from any course.
Why I joined DEV.to
I want to:
✅ Write technical articles that go beyond tutorials — real architecture decisions, real tradeoffs
✅ Share what I learn building production infrastructure
✅ Connect with DevOps, cloud, and backend engineers
✅ Get better at communicating complex systems simply
Fun fact
I've written more YAML than actual application code in the past 6 months. And I'm not sorry about it. 🐳
