Summary

I’m a Site Reliability Engineer with a DevOps background, focused on Kubernetes platforms, observability, automation, and building reliable systems that help teams move fast without losing operational confidence.

Open Source Contributions

🌟 SSHplex

Built and maintained an open source terminal UI for SSH connection multiplexing, designed for infrastructure teams that need fast host discovery, bulk operations, and persistent sessions.

  • GitHub Repository: SSHPlex
  • Blog Post: Building SSHplex
  • Combines NetBox, Ansible, Consul, and static lists as sources of truth for hosts and devices
  • Supports three mux backends: tmux standalone, tmux + iTerm2, and native iTerm2 on macOS
  • Provides broadcast commands and persistent sessions to replace expensive legacy tooling

Experience

Kindred France Kindred France | Site Reliability Engineer | 2021 - Present

  • Progressed internally from System Engineer to Site Reliability Engineer, shifting my focus from infrastructure automation toward platform reliability, observability, and diagnostics.
  • Manage and improve observability workflows around Kubernetes, with Thanos, Loki, Grafana, and Vector as core technologies.
  • Built a HouseKeeping tool to diagnose stale and broken Grafana resources and improve day-to-day platform hygiene.
  • Built a Search Query Exporter to diagnose query slowness and establish SLOs across Thanos, Loki, and Splunk.
  • Designed an SLO Dashboard Framework for Kindred to standardize service-level visibility and make reliability reporting easier to adopt across teams.
  • Built a Grafana AI Agent with enterprise-ready safeguards, including RBAC-aware behavior and MCP-based diagnosis flows.
  • Expanded recent hands-on expertise with Helm charts, Argo CD, container images, Jenkins, GitLab, Splunk, AWS CloudWatch, and CUR2.
