I’m a seasoned technology professional currently serving as a Staff Engineer at Five9, focused on observability at scale. My career has been driven by a strong passion for automation, observability, and a commitment to building reliable, scalable systems.

Over the years, I’ve focused on optimizing and streamlining operational workflows, with an emphasis on designing and implementing resilient systems that not only address the complexities of today’s fast-evolving tech landscape but also anticipate future challenges.

Open Source & CNCF

I’m an active contributor to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) ecosystem, with a primary focus on the OpenTelemetry project – the industry standard for observability telemetry.

I also maintain lokxy, a Loki multi-instance proxy (similar to Promxy for logs) with OpenTelemetry tracing instrumentation.

Areas of Interest

• Distributed systems observability (traces, metrics, logs)
• Cloud-native infrastructure and Kubernetes
• System reliability engineering at scale
• Open source collaboration and community building

Feel free to reach out on the CNCF Slack – always happy to connect.
