- Tracing
- SLOs
Upgrades, day-2 & cost
Safe upgrade paths, operator lifecycle, capacity planning, and right-sizing so the platform stays healthy and lean.
- Upgrades
- Operators
- Right-sizing
AI workloads on OpenShift AI
GPU enablement, model serving, and MLOps on OpenShift AI, so you can run LLMs and data science on infrastructure you control.
- OpenShift AI
- GPUs
- Model serving
Training & enablement
Hands-on workshops for platform admins and developers, so your team owns the platform after we leave.
- Admin workshops
- Dev onboarding
- Runbooks
Process
From assessment to steady state
Everything as code, documented, and handed over, with no snowflake clusters.
-
Assess
Review current infrastructure, workloads, security posture, and team skills. Define the target state.
[~1–2 weeks] -
Architect
Topology, networking, storage, identity, and GitOps design, all agreed and documented before we build.
[~1–2 weeks] -
Build & migrate
Install clusters as code, wire up pipelines and policy, and move workloads in safe, tested waves.
[~2–8 weeks] -
Operate
Day-2 ops: upgrades, observability, cost tuning, and team enablement, with ongoing support if you want it.

About
Hi, I'm Justin. I run the platforms I recommend.
[Your bio here: 2–3 sentences on your background, the kinds of organizations you've worked with, and your OpenShift / Kubernetes experience.]
I operate my own Kubernetes infrastructure end to end, including identity with Keycloak SSO, GitOps, observability, and self-hosted AI workloads, so the guidance you get is tested on real clusters. [Add certifications, past roles, or Red Hat partner status here, only if applicable.]
Hands-on engineer
The person designing your platform is the one at the terminal.
Everything as code
GitOps-managed clusters you can rebuild, audit, and review.
Security by default
SSO, least-privilege RBAC, and policy from day one.
Knowledge transfer
Docs, runbooks, and pairing, so your team owns it.
