Methods & tools

How I work

The methods I bring to production systems, cloud platforms, automations and product development.

I judge an automation by the time it saves and the work it takes to operate.

01
Support & SRE

Keep systems alive that people depend on

I build assuming something will fail at the worst possible moment. Incident response, monitoring and operating procedures are part of the work, not an afterthought.

Focus

Incident response · monitoring and alerting · on-call · postmortems

Incident response
  1. Observe
  2. Investigate
  3. Recover
Tools I use
  • Sentry
  • CloudWatch
  • Grafana
  • Datadog
  • PagerDuty
02
Enterprise Cloud

Make a big company's cloud safe to build on

I use infrastructure as code to make provisioning and security rules repeatable and reviewable. Access control, audit trails and operating documentation belong in the same foundation.

Focus

Multi-account architecture · access control · audit trails · operating-cost control

Cloud structure
  1. Foundation
  2. Guardrails
  3. Environments
Tools I use
  • AWS
  • GCP
  • Terraform
  • Terragrunt
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes

Automation & DX

Automate the work people do by hand

I turn manual work into automations using APIs, MCP tools, data pipelines and code. Client requirements shape the automation; end-to-end and preview testing check the behavior before people rely on it.

Focus

Automation design · Model Context Protocol (MCP) · API integration · scrapers and data pipelines · AI agents

Automation design
  1. Input
  2. Automation
  3. Result
Tools I use
  • Python
  • TypeScript
  • Glow
  • MCP
  • n8n
  • Make
  • PostgreSQL
  • Supabase
04
Product & Systems
Now

Propose what to build and how it should work

I bring ideas to the team, define how features should behave and test them. Writing the documentation and working with clients inform those decisions.

Can someone understand how to use it? Who can access the data? What happens when it fails?

Focus

Product direction · shared human-agent canvases · MCP & tool governance · feature development · developer experience

Product iteration
  1. Propose
  2. Define
  3. Test & refine
Tools I use
  • Next.js
  • React 19
  • TypeScript
  • Python
  • Playwright
  • Figma
  • Jira
  • GitHub Actions
