About Me

Senior DevOps és mérnöki vezető vagyok, jelenleg Senior DevOps Manager, erős háttérrel banki üzemeltetés, fizetési rendszerek, felhőarchitektúra és platform engineering területeken.

Komplex, szabályozott platformokat és DevOps szervezeteket tervezek, építek és üzemeltetek — teljes körű felelősséggel a megbízhatóságért, biztonságért, skálázhatóságért és megfelelőségért.

Hands-on mérnöki hátteret ötvözök csapatvezetéssel, toborzással, people managementtel és operációs felelősséggel. Olyan rendszereket és működési modelleket építek, amelyek éles környezetben, üzleti nyomás és szabályozói elvárások mellett is stabilan működnek.

A DevOpsban számomra az a legizgalmasabb, amikor technológia, üzleti igény, megfelelőség és hosszú távú üzemeltetés egy működőképes, megbízható platformmá és erős mérnöki csapattá áll össze.
