I build high volume, scalable, observable, resilient systems at the intersection of cloud-native infrastructure and applied ML. OpenDaylight elected committer, Kubernetes contributor, co-author of the OpenDaylight Cookbook, and technical reviewer of the OpenFlow Cookbook.

About

Software Engineering specialist with deep expertise in software-defined networks, Kubernetes, and observability at scale. My work sits at an intersection: production infrastructure credibility combined with academic research depth in ML for edge and resource-constrained devices.

I build systems that are observable, resilient, and efficient — from container orchestration at scale to inference pipelines that run on constrained hardware.
