Infrastructure Engineer &
Open Source Contributor
Building reliable systems at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, developer tooling, and AI-assisted engineering.
About Me
I am an infrastructure engineer with deep experience across Kubernetes, cloud platforms (GCP, Azure, AWS), and infrastructure-as-code paradigms. My focus is on robust system architecture, not just deploying components, but ensuring they run predictably at scale.
As an active open source contributor, I've built a track record of earning trust in major communities through thoughtful, well-tested contributions rather than just code drops. I understand the social mechanics of open source as well as the technical requirements.
Currently, my work is heavily focused on bridging traditional infrastructure with AI agent orchestration—creating multi-model orchestration systems and robust developer tooling.
Why Ogham?
The name gorm-ogham comes from the Irish gorm, meaning blue, and Ogham (᚛ᚑᚌᚐᚋ᚜), the earliest writing system native to Ireland. Carved into standing stones from the 4th century, Ogham encoded Old Irish along a central stemline using groups of simple strokes.
Like infrastructure as code, Ogham was a system for encoding meaning into structured marks on a surface. The stones were interfaces. The alphabet was the protocol. Fifteen hundred years later, the principle holds: define it clearly, carve it once, and it persists.
᚛ ᚑᚌᚐᚋ ᚜
Ogham is read bottom-to-top on stones, left-to-right in manuscript. The characters above spell "Ogam" — the script's own name.
