Description

Site Reliability Engineer with 13 years keeping production systems alive: factory integrations at Volvo, hybrid container platforms at nShift, and a regulated healthcare cloud at Oslo University Hospital. Zero downtime on call tenures. Monitoring built and operated on Prometheus/Grafana, ELK and Datadog. Ran a blended on premises plus AWS estate through an LXD/LXC to EKS migration without dropping availability. Knows both sides of reliability because he wrote the services first, then kept them running: ITIL discipline from the ServiceNow trenches meets hands on platform engineering.
