I have been working with PostgreSQL for more than 15 years, mainly as a DBA. A couple of years ago, I fell in love with implementing monitoring and alerting solutions for Postgres clusters. This took me to the world of DevOps, utilizing Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible and everything that helps to automate as much as possible.

I'm also certified as a Google cloud Database Engineer, Google Cloud Engineer and previously as a Kubernetes Certified Administrator (CKA), nevertheless, my experience extends beyond google products to include AWS, Azure, OCI, DO and other cloud providers.

I have contributed to open-source projects like Prometheus, pg_exporter, wal-g, zalando's postgres operator and others.
