What I Work On

Azure Landing Zones

End-to-end ALZ Corp deployments with Terraform and Bicep. 135+ automated checklist validations via Azure Resource Graph. Security and compliance built in from day one, not bolted on.

See deployment patterns

AKS & Kubernetes

AKS Automatic clusters with ALZ Corp networking. BYO VNet, Application Gateway for Containers, NGINX, Istio with multiple ingress and egress patterns documented with full Terraform parity.

See AKS patterns

IaC Security

Terraform modules built to run inside ALZ Corp landing zones: no public IPs, central firewall egress, managed identity everywhere. PSRule and azqr integrated into CI pipelines.

See security patterns

GitHub Runners & CI/CD

GitHub-hosted and self-hosted runners with Azure VNet integration, Container Apps, and ALZ Corp firewall egress. GHE.com EU data residency patterns.

See runner patterns

Open Source

Terraform modules, ARG queries, and tooling that came out of real customer engagements.

Speaking

Upcoming: "Where does code generation stop and InfraOps start?" at Agentic AI & DevOps Days, June 16, 2026.

I have previously spoken at Nordic Infrastructure Conference (NIC) (one Level 300, live-streamed session on Terraform, GitHub Copilot, and IaC security, 94% approval), and at customer sessions on GHAS, GitHub and Azure DevOps, and Azure Arc and Azure Local.
