About Me

Who I Am

A bit of background on my journey as an engineer.

I'm a DevOps & Software Engineer based in Koblenz, Germany, with a passion for building reliable, automated infrastructure and clean backend services.

Currently at VIVAVIS AG, I single-handedly designed, built, and operate a multi-cluster Kubernetes platform (K3s) across Development, QA, Staging, and Production environments — fully GitOps-driven with FluxCD. I also manage Jenkins clusters with 100% reproducibility via JCasC, handle GitLab and Linux server administration, and take ownership of security hardening, TLS concepts, and secret management with SOPS.

Before my DevOps focus, I spent over two years as a Software Engineer building APIs with Spring Boot, Quarkus, and working with AWS cloud services. My background gives me a unique perspective that bridges development and operations.

I hold a Bachelor's in Computer Science from the University of Karachi and bring experience from companies across Pakistan and Germany.
