About Kevin V.
Platform Engineering | DevOps | Site Reliability | Bare-Metal & Cloud-Native InfrastructureI\'m a hands-on DevOps/SRE engineer with deep experience in both on-premise and cloud-native environments, building resilient platforms at scale. From PXE-booting bare metal clusters with Terraform and Puppet, to deploying GitOps pipelines with ArgoCD, Helm, and Sealed Secrets, I bring production-grade automation to every layer of the stack.I specialize in:Building secure, high-performance Kubernetes clusters (RKE2, K3s, EKS, self-hosted)Implementing GitOps pipelines with ArgoCD, FluxCD, and KustomizeManaging secrets and compliance with Vault, Sealed Secrets, and OPA/GatekeeperOperating advanced networking with Cilium (eBPF), BGP, and WireGuard meshObservability using Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and OpenTelemetryCI/CD automation with GitHub Actions, Tekton, and Docker BuildKitImage and IaC security with Trivy, Snyk, Conftest, and OPARecent work includes:Migrated legacy VMs to GitOps-managed bare metal clusters using MAAS + RKE2Designed self-healing clusters with ArgoCD AppSets, health checks, and auto-repair scriptsIntegrated AI-driven incident classification and auto-remediation into SRE workflowsI believe great infrastructure is invisible. I build platforms that empower devs, reduce toil, and scale effortlessly — whether in the cloud or a rack of bare-metal servers.Open to opportunities where I can lead or contribute to modern infra, platform engineering, or AI-augmented DevOps/SRE teams.
