ABOUT ANDREI VASILIU
Reduced platform onboarding time 40% and sustained 99.9% uptime in regulated financial services, while achieving ISO 27001 and embedding Zero Trust. I deliver multi‑cloud platforms with GitOps that are auditable, secure, and fast.Hi, I’m Andrei, a Platform Engineering Director focused on building secure, scalable internal platforms for financial services where reliability, compliance, and delivery speed all matter simultaneously.What I do- GitOps‑driven platforms (Terraform, ArgoCD, Kubernetes) with auditability & policy‑as‑code- Shift security left: Zero Trust, segmentation, secrets, ISO 27001 controls- Developer experience: IDP, self‑service golden paths, SLOs- Scale Kubernetes: service mesh, progressive delivery, observabilityRecent wins- Architected and built from scratch the first cloud infrastructure solution for Intesa Sanpaolo Wealth Management in Luxembourg fully automated via Terraform + ArgoCD- Led ISO 27001 certification journey: governance, risk assessment, policy & control implementation- Delivered Backstage-based IDP cutting onboarding time 40% and standardizing golden paths- Maintained 99.9% uptime across critical financial workloads while evolving platform capabilities- Unified CI/CD strategies (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD) under a consistent GitOps operating modelTechnical expertise- Cloud: GCP, Azure (regulated & cost‑optimized deployments)- Kubernetes & Orchestration: GKE, AKS, OpenShift, Istio, Helm, Kustomize- Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, Ansible; policy-as-code & drift management- CI/CD & GitOps: ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, Tekton, Jenkins, GitLab- Security & Compliance: ISO 27001, Zero Trust Network, IAM, Secrets Mgmt, Network Segmentation- Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Splunk, Fluentbit- Automation & Scripting: Bash, Python; platform tooling & pipelinesLeadership & impact- Built and led Platform/DevOps teams; mentored engineers; established engineering excellence- Balanced strategic roadmaps with hands‑on delivery (still writing IaC); drove self‑service cultureHow I work:Pragmatic, metrics‑driven, security‑first. I translate governance into actionable engineering workflows.Let’s connect if you’re- Evolving a platform function or internal developer platform- Maturing GitOps, Kubernetes, or multi‑cloud in a regulated environment- Driving ISO 27001/security automation alongside delivery accelerationOpen to conversations about platform strategy, architecture reviews, or mentoring emerging platform teams.
