Platform & DevOps
Kubernetes, Helm, ArgoCD, Terraform. GitOps pipelines and internal developer platforms that let teams ship without touching raw YAML.
// hello, world
Engineer • Builder • Problem Solver
I design and run developer platforms — Kubernetes, GitOps, CI/CD, and the automation that makes shipping boring. Senior Engineer at EPAM / LSEG. I build tools that turn messy infrastructure into reliable systems.
// about me
I'm an engineer happiest where reliability, automation, and clean systems meet. I turn brittle, manual infrastructure into platforms teams can trust — and ship on.
Kubernetes, Helm, ArgoCD, Terraform. GitOps pipelines and internal developer platforms that let teams ship without touching raw YAML.
Python, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy. Double-entry ledgers, statement parsers, and APIs built to be correct first and fast second.
Datadog, SLI/SLO, incident response. I make systems observable so failures stay boring and recoverable.
Local LLMs, LlamaIndex, Qdrant, MCP. Retrieval-augmented tooling running on homelab and Mac hardware.

Personal Finance Engine
Parses Thai bank statements (SCB, KBank, KKP, CardX) into a double-entry ledger with a table-driven category engine and mortgage-split handling. Correctness-first accounting.
finc.calavelas.netInternal Developer Platform
Scaffolds services straight into GitHub, wires up ArgoCD / GitOps, and surfaces live platform snapshots, case history, and deployment status from a single self-service portal.
endr.calavelas.netOpen Source & Experiments
Infrastructure tooling, AI/RAG experiments, and the rest of my work in the open. Pipelines, platform engineering, and the occasional weekend rabbit hole.
