Hi, I'm Kazem 👋

Cloud, DevOps & Platform Engineer based in Turin, Italy. M.Sc. Computer Engineering, Politecnico di Torino.

I design, automate, and scale Kubernetes-based infrastructure, combining a strong networking foundation with modern cloud-native tooling. Most cloud engineers are weak on networking. I work fluently across both.

Portfolio

Three repos, one story: a small European logistics company shipping a service to Kubernetes. Each is a complete real-world scenario you can run on a laptop in about five minutes, no cloud account required.

  • ⎈ gitops-k8s-platform: A commit becomes a running, monitored deployment. Go service → Docker → Helm → Argo CD → Prometheus, with multi-window SLO alerting. make demo brings the whole thing up on kind.
  • ☁️ aws-landing-zone: The AWS account underneath it. VPC, EKS, IRSA, remote state, and a Terraform pipeline that authenticates with OIDC and stores no AWS credentials at all.
  • 🐧 linux-fleet-automation: Ansible roles for the Linux hosts around the cluster, plus a Bash auditor that verifies the hardening independently of the tool that applied it. Molecule proves idempotence.

Multi-cluster & research work

Where I spend most of my time: scheduling workloads across many small clusters.

Currently a Research Fellow at Politecnico di Torino, working on AI workloads on telco edge infrastructure.
