I bring 25+ years of direct B2B sales experience and a strong technical background to lead security initiatives for Kubernetes platforms.
-
☸️ Kubernetes: Deep understanding of Admission Controllers, RBAC, Pod Security Standards (PSA), and Network Policies.
-
🔐 Security: Implemented a production-ready Validating Webhook in Go enforcing 8+ security rules (no privileged, no latest tags, resource limits).
-
⚙️ DevSecOps: Built automated CI/CD pipelines on GitHub Actions with container signing (Cosign) and vulnerability scanning (Trivy).
-
🎮 Fun fact — WoW & Warhammer Online:
-
🐉 World of Warcraft (SmartAI): Authored 35k+ SmartAI scripts — a declarative state machine system for NPC behavior. Required deep understanding of threat/response loops, conditional logic trees, and race condition avoidance — directly transferable to Kubernetes admission controller logic.
-
⚔️ Warhammer Online (private server development): Contributed to server emulation efforts focusing on packet flow analysis, ability queuing systems, and combat rule enforcement. Honed skills in:
- 📦 Protocol validation (similar to API webhook validation)
- 🛡️ Real-time policy enforcement (think OPA/Gatekeeper but for MMO abilities)
- 🔍 Debugging distributed state across players, NPCs, and environment triggers
-
Current Focus: Developing a Kubernetes Operator for automated security policy enforcement.
