A few words about me
His first encounter with the internet was on Unix systems in 1994. Later on, he started writing his first web pages at these years. Although his age is not impressive, he has seen Netscape 1.0 and even created web pages with HTML libraries containing only three tags. This was a giant leap after the Lynx command in Unix.
For 13 years, he worked as a software developer, database administrator, system administrator, and project manager at 2 of the largest universities in Turkey. He studied many academic and military projects.
One day he left the academic environment to jump into the startup market and worked in Turkey, the Netherlands, the US, and the UK, sometimes remotely and sometimes on-site.
He never used windows on his personal computers, instead they were always based on Linux or OSX. He started using Linux since the first hours of the Slackware distro and has a passionate connection with Linux. He is a complete Linux geek.
After 20 years of working on different topics in many projects, he decided that the new title DevOps, which stands out with in the cloud world, was the most suitable field for him.
Nowadays, results-driven DevOps Engineer and Cloud Architect with expertise in architecting and implementing robust infrastructure solutions. Skilled in optimizing software development practices and ensuring the high availability and scalability of systems. Proficient in public cloud platforms like AWS, Google, Azure and also worked on private cloud for many years before public clouds. Since 2019, he has been working intensively on Kubernetes on public and private cloud. CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), scripting, and security. Strong collaboration and problem-solving abilities, driving innovation and seamless integration across development and operations teams. Additionally, He has a comprehensive background in Linux distributions from followed by the Linux Slackware Distribution in 1995, and subsequently working with various distributions including Debian, Ubuntu, RedHat, and many others.
This is what I am good at
The knowledge of man depends on his will and desire for learning. (Yet) Not mastering a language, tool or platform at this moment does not mean that I am not able to use it. The important thing is to be able to construct it. I've always worked passionately in these five areas; DevOPS, System/Linux, Open Source World, Software & Architecture, Databases.
