Tech Enthusiast | DevOps | NixOS

Hi! I'm Matthew, a tech enthusiast passionate about efficiency, reliability and reproducibility.

I'm a DevOps Engineer with 5 years of professional experience in tech.
My expertise includes:

Programming / Coding:
I have been coding since I was 13 years old, and have been improving ever since. I started of with simple batch scripts and picked up HTML and CSS later on. Over the years I have picked up a multitude of languages, such as Java, Javascript, Python, C, C++, and Rust. I enjoy learning new languages and its inner quirks that make it unique.
DevOps & Cloud:
I started my DevOps journey within my first year of working. I built an internal tool and was tasked with setting up a pipeline to run the tool automatically. Since then I have been learning concepts and the tools associated with DevOps and have been successfully implementing these processes across teams. These include but are not limited to:
- CI/CD -- Azure Pipelines, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD
- Containerization -- Docker, Podman
- Container Orchestration -- Kubernetes
- Secret Management -- Azure KeyVault
- Artifcact Management -- Artifactory
Linux & NixOS:
I have been using Linux as my go-to operating system for software development for a few years now, and have not really looked back since. I have used Linux distributions such as Linux Mint and Ubuntu for desktop, and Debian and RHEL for servers. As of right now, I have been daily driving NixOS for over a year. NixOS uses a declarative configuration system and aligns with the "Everything as Code" philosophy.
