I like to work on projects with high social impact. I work best when I feel it helps people and provide them value. I’m an open-source software enthusiast. I have a good understanding of software development lifecycle and I think DevOps is a way to embrace agile methodologies hence shortening time to market. I believe automation and toil elimination are the keys to improve systems reliability and to allocate more time to activities that increase business value. I’m also interested in security. I think there is no point of having a highly-available infrastructure with backups, redundancy and all the stuff if any newbie attacker can bring it down or gain unauthorized access. I’m a continuous learner and I’m always more than happy to share my knowledge with others. I’m always willing to improve myself and strengthen my skill set.
