I keep a six-cluster production Kubernetes fleet at 99.9% uptime.
Senior SRE at Wizeline, embedded with Capsule — a US healthcare and pharmacy platform on AWS. Twelve years building software, five of them running cloud infrastructure: EKS, Terraform, Helm, Prometheus, and a lot of careful, zero-downtime migrations.

Recent reliability work
What running a healthcare platform's infrastructure has looked like this year.
Two fleet-wide Kubernetes upgrades, zero downtime
Led EKS 1.32 → 1.33 and 1.33 → 1.34 across all six production clusters with Helm, Helmfile and Codefresh — no customer-visible impact on either pass.

Hardened a Lambda concurrency storm
A burst throttled a customer-facing webhook. Capped concurrency in Terraform, fixed the fail-fast path, and closed the detection gap with alerting on the unreserved pool.
- Lambda
- Terraform
- Alerting
Aurora Serverless v2 → RDS Provisioned
Migrated on CVE patch-latency grounds and cut monthly database cost by about 8%. Later found and killed three months of orphaned double billing.

Field notes
Incident write-ups and migration notes from production — what broke, what I checked, what changed.
- The 504 That Wasn't My Server: A CloudFront VPC Origin OutageMy site went down with 504s and my first instinct was 'out of memory.' The server was fine — AWS's VPC-origin plumbing had silently stopped forwarding traffic. Here's how I proved it, worked around it, and reverted once AWS fixed it.
- Claude on Bedrock Wouldn't Bill in India — So I Shipped on NovaI had the feature designed, the prompt written, and the IAM key scoped. The one thing standing between me and a working AI feature was a payment method AWS wouldn't accept. Here's the blocker on the India region — and the model-agnostic escape hatch that let me ship the same day.
- What the First 50 Portfolios Taught Me About Building XIRR LedgerXIRR Ledger just crossed 50 real portfolios. Here's why I built it, what the early numbers actually mean for retail investors, and where the product goes next.
- Infrastructure Debt Shows Up on Your Credit CardWe migrated Aurora to RDS with zero downtime — then quietly paid for two databases for two months. The fix wasn't more knowledge. It was a forcing function.

Running something that has to stay up?
I'm open to conversations about SRE and platform roles, and about infrastructure that needs a steadier hand. I reply within a day.
