A passionate technology enthusiast who enjoys dealing with various challenges in the field of Software Engineering, Game Development and Machine Learning, well balanced with outdoor activities, healthy food and a good social life with family and friends. In both my professional career, I’m creating software such as large scale cloud native microservice applications in the domain of observability, automated monitoring and alerting such as AIOps. In my free time, I love to work on mobile apps or 2D retro games running on different platforms that are used by a large number of end-users. Lately, I started to work on online multiplayer games to make the time during the pendamic with friends more enjoyable.
What excites me about writing software is that sky’s literally the limit thanks to open source: you have free access to kind of everything you need, and the only tool required is your computer that you have anyways. In the end, the only limit is your time and creativity.
