I am a Virtualization & DevOps Engineer currently working at Oracle. I specialize in building robust, automated infrastructure by combining low-level systems engineering (KVM/QEMU) with modern cloud-native practices.
- 🏗️ Core Work: Engineering high-performance virtualization stacks on Oracle Linux (UEK) with a focus on QA automation.
- ♾️ DevOps & Infrastructure: Architecting CI/CD pipelines and managing infrastructure-as-code (IaC) to streamline deployment cycles.
- 🧪 v12n-AI-Lab: Developing autonomous AI agents to automate complex virtualization testing scenarios.
- 🤖 Agentic Automation: Implementing AI-driven trading and automation workflows using OpenClaw and Freqtrade.
