Containerise, Automate, Script, Repeat.
Site Reliability Engineer by day, Developer by night. 3+ years of professional hands-on experience automating, creating, maintaining, and supporting multi-environment platforms, infrastructure and services at scale - whilst trying to push correct SRE methodologies along the way.
This website was set up to enable me to track my own personal development journey (and hopefully help a few others out along the way).
Currently making good progress on the 'commit-per-day' challenge for the year on personal projects.
