Profile.
I build infrastructure and the code that runs on it. Python, Go, Kubernetes, AWS — I automate what I can, document what I learn, and ship tools that reduce friction for other developers. Currently at SigNoz.io helping teams adopt OpenTelemetry. I write technical blog posts and contribute to open-source projects.
