I build and repair the pipelines
that ship other people's code.
One year in, focused on CI/CD reliability, self-hosted runner infrastructure, and cloud automation — with Python for the tooling that holds it all together.
About
I'm a DevOps/Cloud Engineer with a year of hands-on experience keeping deployment pipelines healthy and infrastructure predictable. My day-to-day covers CI/CD pipeline design in GitHub Actions, managing and debugging self-hosted runners, and working with containerized services through Docker and Docker Compose.
I like the debugging side of the job as much as the building side — tracing a failed workflow back to a stale auth token, or a broken deploy back to an environment variable, is where I've learned the most. I'm currently extending that into Python, building automation scripts with subprocess, boto3, and requests, and testing them properly with pytest.

Experience
- Maintain and troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines running on GitHub Actions with self-hosted runners on Ubuntu Server.
- Diagnosed and resolved a recurring workflow failure caused by a stale runner authentication token, restoring pipeline reliability across a project's deployment process.
- Manage runner lifecycle — registration, user permissions, and service configuration — to keep build infrastructure stable.
- Work with Docker Compose deployments, including environment-based configuration via
.envfiles.
Projects
Root-caused a silently failing workflow to an expired self-hosted runner token generating 404s on checkout. Re-registered the runner and documented the fix to prevent recurrence.
A growing set of scripts for everyday DevOps tasks — wrapping AWS operations with boto3, hitting internal APIs with requests, and shelling out to system tools with subprocess, each covered by pytest.
