Hi, I'm Zak!
Architecting the
Resilient, Multi-Cloud
Foundation
for AI.
Site Reliability Engineer. Platform Engineer. AI Infrastructure Specialist.
For over a decade, I've engineered the robust, scalable infrastructure that powers high-growth technology. As a strategic, embedded Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), I partner with teams to solve their most complex challenges across multi-cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI).
My passion lies at the intersection of platform engineering and AI/ML. I have hands-on experience building the foundational layer for machine learning, from pioneering serverless GPU infrastructure and deploying Spark on Kubernetes to managing large-scale data storage with Ceph. Whether leading zero-downtime migrations or creating reusable, tested infrastructure as code, my mission is to build the secure, automated, and reliable systems that accelerate innovation.
