What I’m focused on Link to heading

Most of my time right now is focused on improving the reliability and maintainability of the systems I work on.

A lot of that comes down to:

• making systems more resilient to failure
• simplifying infrastructure and deployment workflows
• reducing operational friction for teams over time

Less about new tech, more about making things actually work well in practice.

What I’m building Link to heading

• Local Kubernetes setup (k3s)
  Building out a local cluster as a foundation for hosting services and experimenting with infrastructure patterns.

• Personal tooling and workflows
  Small tools and systems to make development faster, more repeatable, and less manual.

• This blog
  Using writing as a way to think more clearly and document what I’m learning.

What I’m exploring Link to heading

• AI-assisted development
  Especially around structured workflows, planning, and spec-driven approaches.

• Modern SDLC design
  What development should look like for small teams if you fully lean into automation and AI.

• Infrastructure tradeoffs
  Thinking through when different approaches (containers, orchestration, etc.) actually make sense.

What I’m learning / thinking about Link to heading

• Simplicity scales better than complexity
• Reliability is mostly about handling edge cases well
• Good systems reduce the need for heroics
• Most tooling is optimized for building, not operating

Outside of work Link to heading

Spending more time outside when I can—hiking and getting away from screens.

Also putting more energy into building things that are actually mine.
