Selected Platform Engineering Work
NeuSix Internal Developer Platform
Built a Backstage-based interface for deployment visibility and self-service environment promotion. The platform integrates Keycloak authentication, Kubernetes deployment data, Kargo promotion workflows, and OpenTelemetry observability while keeping deployment execution in the systems that own it.
Extended the platform with a GitLab CI promotion path: the IDP validates an engineer’s request and delegates execution to the repository’s existing pipeline, while GitLab remains the source for execution state and logs.
Production-Grade Kubernetes on Oracle Cloud
Designed and documented a highly available, private Kubernetes environment on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s Free Tier. The implementation uses Talos Linux, Terraform, OCI Bastion, private load balancers, and Pulumi to bootstrap Argo CD. A Taskfile coordinates infrastructure provisioning and cluster configuration, and Renovate manages dependency updates.
