About Me
I'm a test automation architect by day and a homelab enthusiast by night. My passion lies in automating everything, building resilient infrastructure, and running my own services instead of relying on cloud providers.
Professional Background
Test automation architect with 10+ years building CI/CD pipelines, automated testing frameworks, and developer tooling for enterprise applications.
Homelab Focus
Running 15+ self-hosted services including Nextcloud, GitLab, Plex, and more on a Kubernetes cluster managed entirely through GitOps.
Core Technologies
KubernetesDockerAnsibleTerraformGitLab CIPythonBash
Hardware Stack
3x Intel NUCs running Proxmox VE, 24TB TrueNAS for storage, Ubiquiti networking, and UPS backup for the whole setup.
Why This Blog?
I started this blog to document my homelab adventures and share what I've learned about infrastructure automation, self-hosting, and building production-grade systems at home.
Every post represents real problems I've solved and real infrastructure I'm running. No theory, just practical experiences from someone who treats their homelab like production.
