Top 1% Autonomous Agentic Developer · Infrastructure Engineer

12+ years building reliable infrastructure — now building autonomous, AI-assisted developer platforms.

Pioneering agentic workflows and scalable cloud-native architectures through autonomous multi-agent systems.

💼 Open to platform / agentic engineering roles

I'm a Senior Platform Engineer with 12+ years of hands-on experience running large-scale Linux environments and multi-cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure. My career has followed one consistent thread: simplifying complexity — through legacy migrations, infrastructure as code, and platform engineering that standardizes the boring parts so developers can move faster.

A few years ago I started using AI tools like Claude, GitHub Copilot, and ChatGPT to speed up scripting and troubleshooting. That turned into a deeper focus: building practical, autonomous multi-agent workflows for developer productivity and platform operations.

Linux Systems Admin → DevOps Engineer → Platform Engineer → Agentic Engineer

I build, understand, and optimize. If you're orchestrating intelligent workflows for developers and platforms, let's talk.

My independent agentic engineering work — exploring autonomous workflows, tooling, and the practice of human-AI collaboration.

Platform & Infrastructure

• Multi-cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure) — migrations, IaC rollouts, cost optimization
• Linux systems administration at enterprise scale (RHEL, CentOS, Ubuntu)
• Kubernetes, Docker, container orchestration in production
• CI/CD pipelines and GitOps (GitLab CI/CD, ArgoCD, Helm)

Automation & Reliability

• Terraform module libraries and standardized provisioning
• Configuration management with Ansible, Chef, Puppet
• Monitoring and observability (Grafana, Prometheus, Nagios, ELK)
• Security hardening — CIS baselines, SSH lockdowns, patching cycles

Agentic Development

• Human-AI development workflows using Claude Code and Roo Code
• Multi-agent orchestration and swarm coordination
• SPARC methodology for structured AI-assisted development
• Building reusable tooling that bridges traditional DevOps with agentic engineering

My open-source flagship — an advanced agentic development environment that lets developers bootstrap a full agentic setup in minutes. The current v4.0 release builds on Ruflo v3.5 with 60+ agents, 215+ MCP tools, cross-session memory (Beads), a codebase knowledge graph (GitNexus), and per-agent git-worktree isolation. One command bootstraps across DevPod, Codespaces, or Rackspace Spot. 🔗 turboflow.online

An AI-powered developer onboarding platform — natural language to deployed applications via GitOps. Golden-path workflows built on ArgoCD and OpenRouter integration.

A blazing-fast secret scanner that detects AWS keys, GitHub tokens, and API secrets in codebases. Built in Rust and published on crates.io as secretscan — 2,400+ downloads.

An interactive Rust project generator with intelligent templates — 7 project types including CLI, API server, WebAssembly, game engine, and embedded systems.

An interactive setup wizard that generates project-specific CLAUDE.md configuration files for Claude Code — supporting 12 app types and 7 development methodologies.

⭐ Star counts reflect live GitHub data and will drift over time.

Eight crates published to crates.io — 11,000+ total downloads.

Cetacean Labs — Platform Engineer, Infrastructure & Operations (Oct 2025 – Mar 2026) Owned end-to-end infrastructure for an AI platform: Terraform-based multi-cloud deployments, Kubernetes/NLP integration for natural-language orchestration, and production-readiness work ahead of 2026 customer launches.

ConstructConnect — Senior Platform Engineer / Linux Cloud Engineer (May 2021 – Jan 2025)

• Led multi-cloud migrations across AWS, GCP, and Azure, reducing infrastructure costs by 30% with zero downtime
• Built a Terraform module library that standardized provisioning across 100+ services, cutting deployment time by 50%
• Ran production Kubernetes on GCP at 99.9% uptime
• Migrated 200+ Linux workloads from on-prem to GCP with zero data loss
• Automated OS patching with Ansible/GitLab, improving security compliance by 80%

OCP — Senior Linux Systems Engineer (Apr 2020 – Jun 2021) Automated Linux provisioning with Ansible and Bash (60% less manual work), managed VMware vSphere, and maintained 99.8% uptime through proactive monitoring.

Earlier: Senior Linux roles and consulting at Epsilon, Intuit, Yesmail, and various AWS clients (2012–2019).

A rough picture of the work, drawn from the roles above:

• 12+ years running production Linux and multi-cloud infrastructure
• ~30% cloud cost reduction delivered on a multi-cloud migration, zero downtime
• 100+ services standardized on a shared Terraform module library — ~50% faster provisioning
• 200+ Linux workloads migrated on-prem → GCP with zero data loss
• 99.9% uptime sustained on production Kubernetes
• 8 Rust crates published — 11,000+ downloads on crates.io
• 4 technical books reviewed for Packt Publishing

Figures are rounded career aggregates tied to the specific roles listed above.
