Hi! I’m Didi, a developer passionate about building real-world solutions at the intersection of automation, AI, and DevOps.

I'm currently working via Upwork, helping clients automate and scale their workflows with:

• n8n, Zapier, Make.com, and Python
• Custom API integrations, database syncs, webhook logic, and AI-enhanced automations

At the same time, I'm learning in public — building a full Kubernetes home lab, mastering GitOps, CI/CD, and self-hosted DevOps tooling from the ground up.

My journey with Linux began at age 12, compiling kernels on FreeBSD, experimenting with Red Hat, and reverse engineering TCP/IP stacks for fun. I wrote my first programs in C and loved diving deep into how systems and networks actually worked under the hood.

That early curiosity for operating systems and protocols never left me — it’s what drives me today to master the modern DevOps stack with the same hands-on, experimental mindset.

• Automation & AI Agents:
  Creating intelligent workflows for lead generation, outreach, and content transformation using platforms like n8n, Zapier, Make.com, and Python.

• Upwork Client Work:
  Supporting startups and creators with custom automations, integrations, and backend support — with a strong focus on clarity, delivery, and results.

• Learning in Public:
  Currently focused on learning Kubernetes (K3s), GitOps (with ArgoCD), CI/CD pipelines, secrets management, and GitHub-based workflows.

• DevOps Foundations:
  Developing practical skills in Linux server management, SSH, Docker, container orchestration, infrastructure-as-code, and observability.

• System Design Thinking:
  Committed to mastering how to build modular, scalable, and observable backend systems — through personal projects and real-world practice.

• 🔁 GitOps with ArgoCD
• 📦 Helm & Kubernetes YAML templating
• ⚙️ GitHub Actions for CI/CD
• 🔐 Secret management (Sealed Secrets, Vault)
• 🖥️ Local & cloud hybrid cluster setups
• 📊 Observability: Grafana, Prometheus, Loki
• 🧱 Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, Kustomize
• 🌍 Reverse proxies: Traefik, NGINX
