I modernize legacy production systems. Over the past few years that has meant moving a PHP monolith from bare metal onto Kubernetes with zero-downtime releases, automating Keycloak and environment provisioning as code, building a GDPR data-rights platform end to end, and shipping the anti-abuse and rate-limiting layer that keeps it all honest.

13 years in software. I started as a mining engineer at the University of Birjand before teaching myself to code. I write here about the engineering decisions behind real software.
