Platform engineering and operations leader with a CTO background.
Most of my recent work is in private repositories due to confidentiality constraints (company and client projects, often in regulated environments).

• Build and operate production platforms with a strong bias for reliability, incident readiness, and secure delivery
• Bridge strategy and hands-on execution: architecture, delivery, operations, and stakeholder alignment
• Applied AI in real products: RAG patterns, LLM tooling, and pragmatic automation (not hype)
• Full-stack product building when needed, especially for event and engagement platforms

• Wikifriend: Co-founder and CTO, built an AI semantic platform and shipped real deployments
• Regulated environments: platform operations, security, and delivery discipline under constraints
• IGT Command and IMS Swiss4Win: experience in complex, high-compliance platform setups
• Event platforms: built and iterated end to end products for on-site journeys, check-in flows, and engagement modules

This profile is intentionally lightweight. Public repositories here focus on review-friendly samples:

• Small platform and ops templates (observability, runbooks, SLO thinking)
• Focused full-stack slices that demonstrate engineering judgement
• Legacy repositories kept for historical context and clearly labeled as such

Start here: jivinga-support-ops-stack (incident + support operating model).

• Reliability is a product feature, not a poster
• Simple systems survive incidents better than clever systems
• Operational hygiene: clear ownership, runbooks, postmortems, measurable objectives
• Security in regulated setups: least privilege, auditability, pragmatic controls
• AI-assisted delivery (Codex) as an accelerator, not a substitute for engineering

Java, TypeScript, SQL, API design, authentication and authorization, operational workflows, delivery automation, and applied AI patterns (RAG, retrieval workflows).
