About
Good infrastructure is the kind nobody talks about.
I've spent seven years on systems people only notice when they break: airport infrastructure, hospital platforms, telecom networks. Right now I work on the UAE ICP programme, keeping five UAE airports at 99.9% uptime for more than 50 million passengers a year. I'm originally from India and now live in Abu Dhabi.

Almost everything I run is open source: Linux, Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible. It's what I learned on, and it's what I trust in production.
Airport systems
Infrastructure for five UAE airports on the ICP programme, including Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, plus Muscat International in Oman. There's never a good time for an airport to go offline.
